I'm changing lanes and talkin' on the phone
Drivin' way too fast
And the interstate's jammed with gunners like me
Afraid of comin' in last
But somewhere in the race we run
We're coming undone

And days go by
I can feel 'em flyin'
Like a hand out the window in the wind
The cars go by
Yeah, it's all we've been given
So you better start livin' right now
'Cause days go by

Out on the roof just the other night
I watched the world flash by
Headlights, taillights
Running through a river of neon signs
But somewhere in the rush I felt
We're losing ourselves

And days go by
I can feel 'em flyin'
Like a hand out the window in the wind
The cars go by
Yeah, it's all we've been given
So you better start livin' right now
'Cause days go by
Oh yeah...

We think about tomorrow that is slips away
We talk about forever but we're only got today

And days go by
I can feel 'em flyin'
Like a hand out the window
And the cars go by
Yeah, it's all we've been given
So you better start livin', you better start livin', better start livin' right now

'Cause days go by
I can feel 'em flyin'
Like a hand out the window in the wind
The cars go by
Yeah, it's all we've been given
So you better start livin' right now
'Cause days go by...

So take 'em by the hand [?]
Take 'em by the hand and live your life
Take 'em by the hand, don't let 'em off [?]
Come on, come on now
Yeah-yeah

Don't you know the days go by...
