[Verse 1]
Fifty‑five candles
Wax on my hands
Years of the graveyard shift
And last‑chance plans
I’ve loved hard
I’ve lost some
Still on my feet
Wrinkles like roadmaps
Of every defeat
[Chorus]
I got life left
Gonna run it wide open
Every breath
Every broken
I’m cashin’ it in
I’ll live it with all I got
‘Til the last light dims
Gonna laugh loud
Gonna cry when I need
Gonna dance in the aisles
Spill my coffee and sing
Gonna give this soul its wings
Let my soul run free
[Verse 2]
Clock on the wall says
“Better move fast”
But I’m done being measured
By somebody’s past
I’ll call up my old friends
Say what I mean
Take my grandbaby fishing
Watch that river gleam
[Chorus]
I got life left
Gonna run it wide open
Every breath
Every broken
I’m cashin’ it in
I’ll live it with all I got
‘Til the last light dims
Gonna laugh loud
Gonna cry when I need
Gonna dance in the aisles
Spill my coffee and sing
Gonna give this soul its wings
Let my soul run free
[Bridge]
If this is the last hill
I’m still gonna climb
Talk brave
Love brave
Every time
If this is the last song
That lives in my chest
I’ll sing it like a prayer
Give it all the rest
[Chorus]
I got life left
Gonna run it wide open
Every breath
Every broken
I’m cashin’ it in
I’ll live it with all I got
‘Til the last light dims
Gonna laugh loud
Gonna cry when I need
Gonna dance in the aisles
Spill my coffee and sing
Gonna give this soul its wings
Let my soul run free
Let my soul run free
