My life's like a gyroscope spinning On the edge of the sands of time My life's so out of control baby But for all your loving it can stop on a dime They say I'll have to face the music To pay the piper man for the song he's chimed Every dog must have his day howling And I know one day that I'll have mine (Pre Chorus) Live Fast, I'm living at the speed of sound Love Hard I'm hardest loving man around Die Young, I've got trouble with this part But when I'm older baby then it's too late to start To Live Fast and Love Hard and Die Young To Live Fast and Love Hard and Die Young (Chorus) Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young Is what they all say will happen to you If you go and do All the things you want to do Come take this ride with me Speeding through this life of mine Better hold on tight to me 'Cause we're racing with the hands of time I'm standing on the edge of midnight Darkness all around me and there's nowhere to climb I'm standing two fisted in the darkness A one-way ticket showdown with Father Time They say youth is wasted on the young I'm a Restless Kid and I'm loaded like a gun Pulling hard on the throttle, like there's no tomorrow Making love with Lady Luck, I've got lightning in a bottle (Pre-chorus) (Chorus) I, I will go to the ends of the earth In an endless search for your love I, I will go and battle the fates Even if it's my fate to die young Put yourself in my place I have just begun To Live Fast and Love Hard And if I do, they say I'll Die Young (Repeat Chorus)
