lyrics

like the ocean that turns
the flame slowly burns
the same cycle it seems
catapulting our dreams

we come as we go
the ebb and the flow
is a universal
of which there’s no reversal

and it’s over before it’s begun

it’s your moment under the sun
and it’s over before it’s begun
live like you’re the only one
‘cause it’s over before it’s begun

a disease of the mind
wasting so much time
on prophecies and potions
where’s the inner devotion?

ain’t nothing for free
don’t belong to the needy
for satisfaction
turn reaction into action

and take every chance that comes

it’s your moment under the sun
and it’s over before it’s begun
live like you’re the only one
‘cause it’s over before it’s begun

dreamers come down to the ground
raise your hands
shake your hips
make a sound
like tomorrow may not be around

like the ocean that turns
the flame slowly burns
it’s a universal
of which there’s no reversal
