Time of Your Life

This is one of those songs which struck me unexpectedly.

I can't remember the first time I heard it. But I just dismissed it as one of those pop/rock stuff that sounds ok but I don't know the lyrics ... hehe

Two days ago, I was watching ER. This song was sung during a service for a kid who died of cancer. The way it was sung was quite striking. At first, I just thought it was familiar. Until the last line was sung ...

The last time this song lingered in my mind was when during my last few weeks at work. This also meant my last few weeks in Manila.

I really like this song. I wish I could sing this while playing a guitar .. yah right!

Another turning point;

a fork stuck in the road.

Time grabs you by the wrist;

directs you where to go.

So make the best of this test

and don't ask why.

It's not a question

but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictablebut in the end it's right.

I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs

and still frames in your mind.

Hang it on a shelf

In good health and good time.

Tattoos of memories

and dead skin on trial.

For what it's worth,

it was worth all the while.

It's something unpredictable

but in the end it's right.

I hope you had the time of your life.
