TIM McGRAW LYRICS- Live Like You Were Dyin'
He said I was in my early forties,
With a lot of life before me,
And a moment came that stopped me on a dime.
I spent most of the next days,
lookin' at the x-rays,
Talkin' 'bout the options and talkin' 'bout sweet time.
Asked him when it sank in,
and this might really be the real end.
How's it hit ya, when you get that kind of news.
Man what ya do.
And he says,
[Chorus]I went sky divin', I went rocky mountain climbin',
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull name Fu Manchu.
And I loved deeper, And I spoke sweeter,
And I gave forgiveness I've been denying,
And he said someday I hope you get the chance,
To live like you were dyin'.
He said I was finally the husband,
That most the time I wasn't.
And I became a friend a friend would like to have.
And all the sudden goin' fishing,
Wasn't such an imposition.
And I went three times that year I lost my dad.
Well I finally read the good book,
And I took a good long hard look at what I'd doIf I could do it all again.
And then.
[Chorus]Like tomorrow was a gift and you've got eternity
To think about what you do with it,
What could you do with it,
what canI do with with it, what would I do with it
.[Chorus]

i remember how i came to know Rick and his family. the hardships rick had to go through with his family. his background and his everything. i knew everything about him though he lived in US. His cancer, his mum, his 3 wonderful sons, his deeds, his shortcomings, his beautiful wife.
This special human being has thought me so much in life, since i was 14 i knew him till now, though i got no chance to be around his life giving him the support, i still pray for him.
I still stand by him, i respect his need for privacy.
but i just want to let people know that there is this wonderful guy around.
Who inspired me in so many ways.
I love him and his family.
Bouts of depression can never put him down.
he thought me so much.
So much that i wish i could read his story his life now.
the above song is something that reminded me of him.
and i think was once shared.

god bless him.
thinking of you.

i'm not gonna stand here and wait.
