Every day that passes by
Brings you closer to the day you'll die.
There ain't nothin' you can do
To add a minute to the time that's meant for you,

So you better know what you want
From the little time that you've got,
Make certain that the sun never sets
On a single day of should-haves or regrets.

You've got the power to choose.
Today is yours, to use or to lose.
You've got the power to choose.
There's no one else who can do it for you.

They say you only go through life once.
Pretty soon you're nothin' but dust.
Take every moment that you have
And give it to something or someone you love.

Yeah, whether it's work or play
Or makin' love all through the day,
You've got the power to choose
How you spend every moment that's left to you.

You've got the power to choose.
Today is yours, to use or to lose.
You've got the power to choose.
There's no one else who can do it for you.

You've got the power to choose.
You can say yes, or you can refuse.
You've got the power to choose.
Every minute that's left is precious to you.
