I've been to many places, I've drank a lot of wine
I've loved a lot of women in my time
I took what I was given, too much was not enough
And now I'm here to tell the tale

You think you'll live forever and it's all fun and games
But the candle burns two flames
Look at my reflection, the wrinkles in my face
It's the ravages of time, the ravages of time, the ravages of time

The moment that it hits you, you start to understand
We're just here on borrowed time
Nothing is forever, something's got to give, to the ravages of time
Nothing is forever, something's got to give, so you'd better start to live

I've learned to find the beauty in every step and line, embracing life's design
Every scar and blemish, I wear them as my prize without a compromise
Life it has a meaning, it's who you choose to be and what you leave behind
One day there's no tomorrow and no one can escape, the ravages of time
The ravages of time, the ravages of time

The moment that it hits you, you start to understand
We're just here on borrowed time
Nothing is forever, something's got to give, to the ravages of time
Nothing is forever, something's got to give, so you'd better start to live

The moment that it hits you, you start to understand
We're just here on borrowed time
Nothing is forever, something's got to give, so you'd better start to live
