Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life) Another
turning point a fork stuck in the road Time
grabs you by the wrist directs you where to go
So make the best of this test and don't ask
why It's not a question but a lesson
learned in time It's something unpredictable
But in the end
is right
I hope you had the time of your life
So take the photographs and still frames in
your mind Hang it on a shelf in good health and
good time Tattoos of memories and dead skin on
trial For what it's worth it was
worth all the while It's something
unpredictable But in the end is right I hope you
had the time of your life It's something
unpredictable But in the end is right I hope you
had the time of your life It's something
unpredictable But in the end is right I hope you
had the time of your life
