英文流行歌曲：David Cook - The time of my life

I've been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon¹
I couldn't see it
Until I let go
Gave into love and watched all the bitterness² burn
Now I'm coming alive
Body and soul
And feelin' my world start to turn
And I'll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
Holding onto things that vanished³
Into the air
Left me in pieces
But now I'm rising from the ashes
Finding⁴ my wings
And all that I needed
Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart
So I'll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
And I'm out on the edge⁵ of forever
Ready to run
I'm keeping my feet on the ground
My arms open wide
My face to the sun
I'll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know
This is the time
This is the time of my life.
This is the time of my life.
This is the time of my life.
