Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize - we're floating in space -
Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun don'-go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Do You Realize - Oh - Oh - Oh
Do You Realize - that everyone you know
Someday will die -
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun don'-go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize
Do You Realize - we're floating in space -
Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun don'-go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Do You Realize - Oh - Oh - Oh
Do You Realize - that everyone you know
Someday will die -
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun don'-go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize
I really like this song because it talks about realizing that life is fleeting instead of being overwhelmed with the sadness of life when things change. I think this upbeat song offers a pretty healthy perspective. Personally I am facing a lot of change right now (graduating and getting married within the next 60 days! eek!). And even though most of it is good it has been a little hard for me to process that I'm not going home to be a daughter and a sister this summer, instead i'm going to be a wife and 600 miles away from my immediately family. Its strange to think this thing called college is coming to a quick close and in about 30 days I am no longer going to be a student. Even harder than that, alot of my friends are moving far away after graduation and its hard to say when I'll see them again, if ever. All this can be a lot to process, but I think this song addresses some of that in an upbeat manner. My favorite part is when the song talks about life going fast, but instead of being upset about it, enjoying what you have when you have it. In Ecclesiastes the Bible talks about seasons and there being a time for many different seasons. I think this song kind of echoes that idea.
