She told him she'd rather fix her make-up;
than try to fix what's goin on
but the problem keeps on callin even with the cell-phone gone
she told him that she believes in livin,
bigger than she's livin now
but her world keeps spinnin backwards, and upside-down
don't say so-long, and through a cell-phone,
don't spend today away, cause today will soon be
Gone, like yesterday is gone,
like history is gone,
just try and prove me wrong,
and pretend like you're immortal.
She said, he said live like no tomorrow;
every day we borrow, brings us one step closer
to the edge in a fantasy where's your treasure?
who's your hope? forget the world, and lose your soul
she pretends like she pretends like she's immortal,
don't say so-long, you're not the far gone,
this could be your big chance to make-up,
today will soon be
Gone, like yesterday is gone
like history is gone,
the world keeps spinnin on
, you're going, going, gone,
like summer break is gone,
like saturday is gone,
just try and prove me wrong, you pretend like you're immortal
(you're immortal) you're immortal (you're immortal) ha-ah
We are not infinite we are not permanent nothing's immediate
we're so comforted in our accomplishments look at our decadence
Gone, (gone) like frank sinatra, (gone)
like elvis and his mom (gone)
like al pachino's cash, (gone)
nothing lasts in this life; (gone)
my high school dreams are gone (gone)
my childhood sweets are gone (gone)
life is a day that doesn't last (gone)
for long (gone)
life is more than money (gone)
time was never money (gone)
time was never cash (gone)
life is still more than girls (gone)
life is more than hundred-dollar bills (gone)
and little tom fills (gone)
life is more than fame (gone),
and rock and roll (gone),
and films (gone)
all the riches of the kings and the pinwheels (gone)
We've got information in the information age,
but do we know what life is?
outside of our convenient lexus cages?
she said, he said live like no tomorrow,
every moment that we borrow,
brings us closer to the god who's not short on cash
Jon talking - hey bono, i'm glad you asked,
life is still worth living, life is still worth living
