And I gave forgiveness I'd been denyin'”
”How's it hit 'cha when you get that kind of news?
”And all of a sudden goin' fishin'
To live like you were dyin'
To live like you were dyin'
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu

And I went three times that year I lost my dad

I went rocky mountain climbing
Talking ‘bout the options and talking ‘bout sweet times”

And I watched an eagle as it was flyin'

What would I do with it?
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
And I gave forgiveness I'd been denyin'”
And then”
To live like you were dyin'
”I went skydiving
To live like you were dyin'”
And I became a friend, a friend would like to have”
