appreciate (nick's solo album)

There's a man dying on the side of the road,

Won't make it home tonight.

He was driving fast on his cell phone,

That's how he lived his life.

While he was hangin' by a thread

These were the final words he said



My girl turns sweet sixteen today,

She's beautiful, so beautiful.

It might get rough sometimes

But I hope she keeps her faith (hope she keeps her faith)

I wish I'd grabbed the chance to say to her

Life is too short so take that time and appreciate



There's a women crying on the kitchen floor,

She got a call tonight

Now she's trembling outside her daughter's door

Walks in and holds her tight

Wondering how and where to start,

Is there a way to shield her heart?



My girl turns sweet sixteen today,

She's beautiful, so beautiful

It might get rough sometimes

But I hope she keeps her faith.(hope she keeps her faith)

I wish I'd grabbed the chance to say to her

Life is too short so take that time and appreciate



Any but a loving way

Get hurt along the way

Don't be afraid to open up

And use the time you have before it fades

Show your love today



My girl turns sweet sixteen today,

She's beautiful, so beautiful.

It might get rough sometimes

but I hope she keeps her faith.(hope she keeps her faith)

I wish I'd grabbed the chance to say to her

Life is too short so take that time and appreciate.

Life is too short so take that time and appreciate.
