I heard

Whispers of the wind

Under skies so blue

Orange, purple, and pink

Some people spend their lives chasing what don't exist

Some people don't know what they got till it ends

Tell me after all

Tell me after all

Do you love with all your heart?

Never walk afraid to fall

Tell me after all

Tell you what I know

Be happy for what you got

Even when it's not a lot

Be happy for what you have

You never know how long it's gonna last

And I don't wanna take for granted not even a sec

When every second's slipping though our fingers just like sand

Let's not be like them

I heard the whispers of the wind

Tell me your secrets, I'm your friend

It doesn't matter what they say

I only listen to the wind

Tell me, tell me

Tell me more

Tell me, tell me more

Tell me after all

Tell me after all

Was it worth the time you lost?

Was it worth it, at what cost?

Tell me after all

Tell you what I know

Never walk afraid to fall

Live each day with all your heart
