If Today Was Your Last Day

If Today Was Your Last Day 是來自Nickelback在2008年推出的Dark Horse專輯。當中的歌詞很有意思:

My best friend gave me the best advice

He said each day’s a gift and not a given right

我的好朋友給我最好的建議
每一日還活著是一個禮物而不是權利

Every second counts ’cause there’s no second try
So live like you’ll never live it twice
Don’t take the free ride in your own life

每一秒也不能浪費，因生命沒有take two
不要取巧，要踏實的過每一天

希望同學們能有所領悟。

但同學的領悟是否: If Today Was My Last Day => 不做功課、不溫書。

完整歌詞:

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day’s a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
If today was your last day

Against the grain should be a way of life
What’s worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts ’cause there’s no second try
So live like you’ll never live it twice
Don’t take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?

Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
Swear of the noun, the God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it’s never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
‘Cause you can’t rewind a moment in this life
Let nothin’ stand in your way
Cause the hands of time are never on your side
If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
Swear of the noun, the God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day
