    Lyrics:
    I'm 15 for a moment
    Caught in between 10 and 20
    And I'm just dreaming
    Counting the ways to where you are
    I'm 22 for a moment
    And she feels better than ever
    And we're on fire
    Making our way back from Mars
    15 there's still time for you
    Time to buy and time to lose
    15, there's never a wish better than this
    When you only got a hundred years to live
    I'm 33 for a moment
    Still the man, but you see I'm a they
    A kid on the way, babe.
    A family on my mind

    I was 45 when this came out. Little did I know the chilling accuracy of these words, "I'm 45 for a moment, the sea is high and I'm heading into a crisis." My crisis was breast cancer. I'm 63 for a moment and looking back with gratitude on these last 17 breast-cancer-free years. Each day, each breath is a gift.

You definitely received a miracle. I'll pray for you to have many more years since so many were taken from you. God has blessed you.

      God has plans for everyone. My mom was cancer free around the same age as yours but had a cancer recurrence around May last year. The doctor said that she had at least six months left. She was a woman of faith and wanted to see he grandchildren grow up, which she eventually experienced. Sadly, she left us behind last year. Please have your annual medical check-ups done, as she has failed to do so during the Pandemic.

Even the thought of losing a child is utterly tragic. Strangely, I am hearing that diagnosis more & more the last few yrs. Has the loss gotten somewhat more bearable, Jane? It's been a while, but it's a grief, I think, in it's own category. At least you've got these magical, loving memories. How many other children do u have? Im sorry if that's rude.

My daughter carried your first child for a full nine months, only to have my sweet granddaughter's heart stop just before she could be delivered. Now 25 months later, the pain remains, but we ask each day for our Heavenly Father to keep us strong as we honor our granddaughter's memory each day. My daughter has since had a son, God bless him, and she is pregnant again, but memories are hard to erase. Each day of the pregnancy we put our hope and faith in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Your foundation is solid with your faith in Jesus and I wish God's blessings to you both.

    I'm 15 for a moment
    Caught in between ten and 20
    And I'm just dreaming
    Counting the ways to where you are
    I'm 22 for a moment
    And she feels better than ever
    And we're on fire
    Making our way back from Mars
    15, there's still time for you
    Time to buy and time to lose
    15, there's never a wish better than this
    When you've only got a hundred years to live
    I'm 33 for a moment
    I'm still the man, but you see I'm a "they"
    A kid on the way, babe
    A family on my mind
    I'm 45 for a moment
    The sea is high
    And I'm heading into a crisis
    Chasing the years of my life
    15, there's still time for you
    Time to buy and time to lose yourself within a morning star
    15, I'm alright with you
    15, there's never a wish better than this
    When you've only got a hundred years to live
    Half time goes by, suddenly you're wise
    Another blink of an eye, 67 is gone
    The sun is getting high
    We're moving on
    I'm 99 for a moment
    And dying for just another moment
    And I'm just dreaming
    Counting the ways to where you are
    15, there's still time for you
    22, I feel her too
    33, you're on your way
    Every day's a new day
    Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ooh
    15, there's still time for you
    Time to buy and time to choose
    Hey, 15, there's never a wish better than this
    When you've only got a hundred years to live

    If you can somehow make it through the song without crying, reading the comments will start the tears flowing. With every passing year, this song becomes richer, and deeper in meaning. I can't believe I'll be 60 next year. I lost my father last year, man that was hard. So many good people gone over the past twenty years. But at the same time, I'm blessed with two beautiful boys and maybe I'll have grandchildren in a few years...still so much to look forward to. Not really sure how many more 'moments' I'll get. I'll be happy with 40 more healthy ones. Time to meet my grandkids, time to deepen my friendships, time to accomplish a few more of my writing goals. And maybe time for Paris...somehow never found the time to go there.

      @heatherpierce9123 just four years before your son’s birthday I had a son, Ryan born 7.20.2000 about 3 weeks early, his lungs not fully developed. Ryan knew my voice as he seemed to be very active every time I was around his mother. While he laid in ICU, I put my smallest finger in his little hand as he naturally grasped it, I told him I loved him. He was laying on his belly, turned his head and looked at me with his beautiful dark eyes. about 30 hours later, I decided to stay with his mother in her room. Before we even got to sleep, they called us and no parent should ever have to see someone doing CPR on an infant. They tried. They let us hold him for about 45 minutes before letting him go to holding room before the morgue picked him up for a later funeral. Yes July 20 has a significant meaning as my grandfather passed on that day to In 1986. Some may get 100 years some maybe just a few hours and none of us know what tomorrow holds and life can sure have unfair consequences, however I have the faith that I will see all that have passed before me. I to without would have been gone in December of 2019, except doctors blessed with technology are amazing at times with what they can do with your heart to keep you going. 🙏🏻

I heard it On April 27th, which happened to be the day Mom went to Heaven 34 years ago, Now at 71, I still miss her like crazy. She only got to be a grandma for one year, but knew we were expecting our second child when the Lord called her. And we named our third child, our daughter after my Grandma and Mom, the two kindest, sweetest, and strongest ladies God ever made. I will continue playing this and cry each time.

    If I create a playlist for my funeral, this may be the final song...the way the piano ends with an unfinished chord feels a way of saying “I’m not with you, but I’m not done.”

    I am 46 years old, I feel/act much younger than my age and I don't plan on growing up anytime soon! What I've learned in my 46 years is that life is what you make it, it sucks for everyone at one time or another but you are in control of your own life. Don't count on anyone else to make you happy do it yourself......live the life you want not the one you think other people want you to live. If you fail at something, try it again....we all look back and say I should have done it different, that's part of life. I realized about 5 years ago that I don't get a "do over" or a "next time" it's just this time and even with the things I failed at accomplishing I will never regret any part of my life enough to wish it never happened! My greatest accomplishments are my 2 kids, no matter what I did or didn't do right in life they are what matters most!! So smile, tomorrow is a new day!

      I have a 27 year old daughter - and I swear, I don't feel much older than 27 myself.
      It is absolutely terrifying how fast the years go by if you aren't paying attention

      I'm turning 26 in 24 days, and I'm trying so hard not to fall into a depression because I sometimes think and feel as if I'm letting my life go to waste. I don't want that. I want to leave a legacy behind for my kids and their kids...But it's also a bit hard when moral support is directed at the wrong thing. Hopefully things will get better before it's all too late.

      Here’s the secret: your body does the aging. You will always see yourself as 20-something. You will be young until your body is done. So take care of your body and live a long, young life.

    Back then when I heard this song (I was around the age of 18) I thought that, wow, this is so deep. I enjoy singing this and whatnot.
    Now, 12 years later, I stumbled again upon this song. I marvel at how life is but a fleeting moment. A failed suicidal act because of getting bullied at college (body shaming and physical abuse) resulting on a damaged liver and kidneys and, maybe, can only go for just another 15 years from now.
    I sing along with this song and every time I sing the chorus "15 there's still time for you" I cry like a waterfall. I still got time. 15 years. Never a wish better than this indeed. Cherish your life people. It's a precious beautiful life we get to live.

      You and many others aren't alone. I finished high school in 2015 and in December a few months later I sat in my room alone sobbing to myself because everything and everyone I came to know were now (for the most part) gone. A few I still hear of and see, but everything has changed.

Got married to the love of my life at 22…lived in Colorado and it was amazing. Insane that was more than half my life ago. Remember Every day is the best day of your life- you blink, and half your life is over….don’t forget that ❤.

    My grandparents are 91 and 94 years old, they’ve been married for over 70 years. My grandma passed away this week and and my grandfather has dementia. Listening to this song, thinking about him and their marriage, is making me sob. He loved her so much and he can’t even understand why she’s gone. And now I’m dreading the day I might lose my partner in old age. Time passes so quickly and you don’t even realise it. We need to start appreciating every single moment we can with our loved ones more, even the bad times.

    It goes by so quickly, 15 was one of the most revered years of my life. There were 4 of us. We were inseparable. Now it’s down to two. Lost one of my lifetime friends to cancer a week ago , the other 2 years ago. I almost lost my life in a truck accident in 2018 but I’m still here at 65 for some reason. The memories will never die.
