Balloons and Beaches

Lyrics

[Chorus] Tomorrow won't come, it's today I woke up breathin', it's not too late Wasted so much time bein' wasted It's a miracle if we make it Try to hold on to this crazy ride through time We're here and nobody knows why So do your best and try to learn from the lessons it teaches Life ain't all balloons and beaches [Verse 1] Tommy fell on hard times now and he don't work He got injured back in '19 loadin' his truck The doctor said, "Take two as needed for pain" Not knowin' he had a predisposition for addiction Friends started noticin', but he wouldn't listen He needs a ride еvery Friday to get his prescription, yеah It was affectin' his appearance Lookin' like a stranger to the ones he held nearest It's like he was missin', but Tommy, he was hidin' Buddies' reminiscin', they seen him walkin' when they're ridin' They said, "What a shame, we tried to help, but wasn't able" A few days later they seen his picture in the paper [Chorus] Tomorrow won't come, it's today I woke up breathin', it's not too late Wasted so much time bein' wasted It's a miracle if we make it Try to hold on to this crazy ride through time We're here and nobody knows why So do your best and try to learn from the lessons it teaches Life ain't all balloons and beaches [Verse 2] Jenny graduated back in June And she's got a smile that can light up the whole room First week of college, she met a guy, they hit it off And a few weeks later, she decided to take it off now Hand in hand, joined at the hip all over campus Fall break came, it's time to go and meet the parents While she was home, Jenny went in to get checked You're perfectly healthy, young lady, but you're pregnant She couldn't believe it, man, her heart, it hit the floor She was afraid he wouldn't want her anymore Scared to tell her folks, but he made it all better Squeezed her hand said, "Let's go and tell 'em together" [Chorus] Tomorrow won't come, it's today I woke up breathin', it's not too late Wasted so much time bein' wasted It's a miracle if we make it Try to hold on to this crazy ride through time We're here and nobody knows why So do your best and try to learn from the lessons it teaches Life ain't all balloons and beaches
