I was blown away when I finally sat down and read the lyrics to “If Today Was Your Last Day” by Nickelback! This song sums up nearly everything we believe in. Watch this version and see if you think this should be the Dream Connections theme song . . .
“IF TODAY WAS YOUR LAST DAY” LYRICS
(Emphasis added by Mark)
My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day’s a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had, if today was your last day?
What if, what if, if today was your last day?
Against the grain should be a way of life
Against the grain should be a way of life
What’s worth the price is always worth the fight
Every second counts ’cause there’s no second try
So live like you’re never living twice
Don’t take the free ride in your own life
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?
And would you call those friends you never see?
And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you’re dreaming of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you’d finally fall in love
If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart? (starting with yours)
You know it’s never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes’
So do whatever it takes’
Cause you can’t rewind a moment in this life
Let nothing stand in your way
‘Cause the hands of time are never on your side
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?
And would you call those friends you never see?
And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you’re dreaming of
Swear up and down to God above
That you’d finally fall in loveRead more: NICKELBACK – IF TODAY WAS YOUR LAST DAY LYRIC VIDEO http://www.metrolyrics.com/if-today-was-your-last-day-lyrics-nickelback.html#ixzz27HfDECcz

It’s kind of inwardly funny, but at this moment I am pushing to achieve two great milestones in my life right now: My first novel series – the signature book is half-way through 2nd draft, and the other is my goal for this coming Quest Tour in November; hopefully.
Some of my friends are wondering why I am pushing so hard to do these big things, and isn’t easier to find love here. Well that song Mark chose just summed it all up.
I am not listening to them. To paraphrase another song made popular in the 80′s; “Ain’t no on gonna break my stride, I’m running and I won’t touch ground… Oh no, I’ve got to keep on moving.”
I agree this song like many other songs carries a positive message. My take away is this lead life to its fullest and don’t have any regrets in later life of integrity.
Great song, but seems more towards the sad side of when someone is about to be gone…..at least that is how I see it. You had a great song on this website. I never heard the song before, but it fit your website / business perfectly. It was a woman singing and one of the quotes was “catch me when I’m falling…….”.
The video itself might not mean a lot – but he message in the narative is Golden. The message I got from it is – be happy in life and don’t dwell on any negatives, go out and find your Happy.

Yes, good tune – never heard it before but after reading the lyrics it’s a great message that all of us should heed.
