Story Behind The Song
Wrote it based off the script of the movie CLICK with Adam Sandler
Song Description
A man just wants to fast forward to all the good things in life, feeling he doesn't have enough time for anything, especially his family. Without realizing it, when he has fastforwards through all the bad things in life most of his life passes him by and he ends up missing valuable moments with his family, and things he loves. It takes him to die to realize he was in heaven. life is as much about the moments you would rather forget as it is the moments you will always remember.

Another wrinkled day
With nothing to hold onto or taste
You missed everything
Just to get to that moment and stay
And for what
Wrapped with sweet regret
You realized you must keep what you craved
What if nothing's left
Trapped inside cages you break
And for what
Sleep till you runaway
Dream till you runaway
Give it a little time it can change
Sleep till you runaway
Dream till you runaway
Takes you to die
To realize you were in heaven
Cradled in your pain
Escape to the promises you made
Thoughts of better days
Forever and ever you say
And for what
Sleep till you runaway
Dream till you runaway
Give it a little time it can change
Sleep till you runaway
Dream till you runaway
Takes you to die
To realize you were in heaven
