"Race Against Time" lyrics

This is our song
Sing it with me children
It's alright

Nobody lives forever
So come on, let's have some fun
And I want a happy ending
Just like everyone wants one

Life would be sweeter
If we all had somewhere we could run, yeah
Oh, don't you dare tell me what can't be done

They say you don't have to grow up
But you've got to grow older
It only hurts when I laugh, you see
'Cause I'll always be young, I'll always be young
In my mind
But I'm racing against the time

Alright, yea, yea, yea, na, na, na, yea, yea, yea

Never mind the mirror in your room
Be who you feel
And the ground's under your feet
But you won't get there standing still

Peak and valley is a promise
But don't you stop until
Oh, and I'll make it, yes I'll make it, yes I will

Had a fight with my father time
About my mother's nature
That makes me destiny's child
'Cause see I'll always be young, I'll always be young
In my mind
I'm racing against the time

Alright, yea, yea, yea, na, na, na, yea, yea, yea
I'm racing against the time
Alright, yea, yea, yea, na, na, na

I won't keep any secrets from you, baby
I'm a sinner, yes I am
And I may have lost your war of words
But hey now I'm still a winner
Does wearing your heart on your sleeve
Really mean that it is isn't in you?
Looking good but you aren't that great of a pretender

When everything is said and done
I'll be alive in my only son
So I'll be there when his son has one
I'll always be young
I'll always be young in my mind
But I'm racing against the time

Alright, yea, yea, yea, na, na, na
Alright, yea, yea, yea, na, na, na
Alright, yea, yea, yea, na, na, na
Alright, yea, yea, yea, na, na, na

Racing against the time
