I didn't write it, but I know the song. It's by Rascal Flatts. 3nodding heart

I spent the morning at an old friend's grave
Flowers and Amazing Grace--
He was a good man
He spent his whole life spinning his wheels
Never knowing how the real thing feels--
He never took a chance
Or took the time to dance
And I stood there thining as I said, "Goodbye."
Today's the first day of the rest of my life...

Chorus:
I'm gonna stop looking back
And start moving on
And learn how to face my fears
Love with all of my heart
Make my mark
I wanna leave something here
Go out on a ledge
Without any net
That's what I'm gonna be about
I wanna be running when the sand runs out


'Cause people do it every day
Promise themselves they're gonna change
I've been there--
But I'm changing from the inside, out
That was then, and this is now
I'm a new man,
Yeah, I'm a brand new man
And when they carve my stone,
They'll write these words:
"Here lies a man who lived life for all that it's worth."

Chorus

whee heart I luff it. It's called 'When the Sand Runs Out.' 3nodding
