Pockets full of money that I saved and never spent   A shoebox full of letters that I wrote and never sent   Words of love and promises I thought but never said   Hoping that I wouldn't fall behind      Nights I wasted dreaming things that I forgot when I awoke   Journeys I had plotted out, but I never found the road   Running into strangers, never looking in their eyes   All the magic that we might have shared if not for my disguise   And still, I'm grateful to be alive, and waiting for the moment to arrive   Seize the moment when it comes   Seize the moment - it may be the only one   Seize the moment - don't you let it pass you by   You've gotta seize the moments of your life      I tried to say I love you but I was paralyzed   I wanted to find happiness but I lost it in your eyes   I waited far too many years before I realized   I have wasted all the best years of my life   Just waiting for the moment to arrive   Seize the moment when it comes   Seize the moment - it may be the only one   Seize the moment - don't you let it pass you by   You've gotta seize the moments of your life      Oh, what am I waiting for?   There is really nothing more than this precious moment   And all this love I have inside   Now it's time to let it shine, so let it shine, let it shine   Seize the moment when it comes   Seize the moment - it may be the only one   Seize the moment - don't you let it pass you by   You've gotta seize the moments of your life
