I have seen those dear to me
step way across the line
Some would say it's tempting fate
Some would say it's doin' fine
A man can tell another what he thinks will make him whole
Do wise men know not to sell their souls?
When the dice have rolled we all pay the price for livin'.
At the end of it all, would you give it all back to be
the rise and fall of someone else's dreams
When the last sun flies across the skies
and we part with father time
will "I should have" be the last thing
that echoes through your mind
When dues are paid the mistakes we've made
will all fall into view
Only then we'll know if we've saved our souls
Either way it goes we got to pay the price for livin'
At the end of it all, would you give it all back to be
the rise and fall of someone else's dreams
