WOW this is a beautiful song! I believe it's a father telling his son all the wonders of life and explaining the true meaning to be alive and living every moment challenging yourself! The father is teaching his son about all the mistakes he did in his life, and everything he encountered, the good, bad and the ugly. It's about finding your inner desire. Finding truth in your existence! Finding true passion in your life. Knowing the difference between true happiness and excitement. Falling in love and treating her like a princess! It's playing your cards, and not holding back. Sounds like a cliché but this song gives me Goosebumps, hits a nerve every time! It's easy to live a mundane life and not be challenged! There will be obstacles, pain, suffering in life, but these aspects will define your character. So when it get's tough you don't quit, you press forward. The father hasn't got long to live so he's expressing everything he knows, and want's him to have a great life, like he did :) Hoping you take that jump But don't fear the fall (Challenge yourself everyday and eventually you'll eventually not fear it. Practise makes perfect) Hope when the water rises You built a wall (Never take the easy road, embrace the challenge and do the unthinkable) Hoping the crowd screams out Screaming your name (Have a lot of friends but they have the same values as you. Friends that will stand beside and admire you) Hope if everybody runs You choose to stay (I love this line! Don't follow the crowd, be independent and take your own path. Follow your own passion and no one else's) Hope that you fall in love And it hurts so bad (Enjoy the beauty of life which is love, passion, hurt, ect but he's saying enjoy the bad feelings as well, it's what make us human) The only way you can know Is give it all you have (Be grounded and face it at %100 Don't have regrets) And I hope that you don't suffer But take the pain (You will encounter suffering in your life but embrace the pain...it's what makes us human. Also you will make mistakes, but don't blame it on others) Hope when the moment comes you say I, I did it all I, I did it all I owned every second That this world could give I saw so many places The things that I did With every broken bone I swear I lived (His father is telling him, I hope you'll say these words later in your life before you die) Hope that you spend your days But they all add up (Everyday was a step in the right direction) And when that sun goes down Hope you raise your cup (Respect every day if it was your last day. Embrace the beauty around you) I wish that I could witness All your joy and all your pain (I wish I could watch you grow up :( But until my moment comes I'll say I, I did it all I, I did it all I owned every second That this world could give I saw so many places And things that I did With every broken bone I swear I lived (His father is telling him he'd lived a great life and I've got no doubts) With every broken bone I swear I lived With every broken bone I swear I lived (Reminding him it's good to have scars and every challenge will make you stronger) I, I did it all I, I did it all I owned every second That this world could give I saw so many places And things that I did girl With every broken bone I swear I lived |

Simplicity is beautiful when you hit the right tone and this song truly does that! The lyrics are simple, but everyone can relate to them one way or another. I honestly believe It's about a older man falling for a younger woman. Daisies - means someone that's sweet, young and innocence. Ride on a big jet plane - Older man is a gentleman (wise, insightful, charming), going to treat her like a princess. But the tragic conclusion the younger woman isn't into him. |

| When a song takes you to a place, you know it's a great song! Great road trip song! Billy is definitely touching on Nostalgia. I get goosebumps when I hear these lyrics "And we don't know Just where our bones will rest To dust I guess Forgotten and absorbed Into the earth below" | |
