Five For Fighting - 100 Years 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
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 all right with you
15 there's never a wish better than this
When you 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

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 only got a hundred years to live

  1. J.... G....

    I am 26 and I am wishing to live in 100 years

    I'm 64..... How I wish I could turn back time and enjoy the good times longer and make different choices... but life has been good.

  3. T.... O....

    To many kids in my childrens high school passed away the year this came out. No drunks, drugs just separate accidents. when you are small town and only about 30-40 in the senior class and you lose 7 kids in one year is just horrible. all were really good kids. Graduation that year was nothing but tears. I will always remember them all and this song always takes me back to that tragic time in my childrens lives. So sad to go to more funerals than proms.

    T.... O....

    I am so sorry that you had to go through that 💔😢. Life is precious.

    I was a toddler when this song came out, and for a while it was my favorite song because it was only 1 of like 4 songs I knew at the time. Now I'm nearing 20 and have listened to almost every song ever, this song is no longer my favorite, but it still holds a special place in my heart mainly because it defined my early childhood.

  11. A.... C....

    No matter how dark our lives seem at various stages this song reminds us that changes will take place that we never expect and the future may deliver us from our distress.

    Hello my fellow depressed folks. Come on, grab a drink. Stay hydrated.

  30. A.... V....

    i don't think this song will only last for a hundred years. i don't think so. i'll be gone and i know this song will go on

  31. �.... A....

    🔥🔥🔥 1:15 🔥❣❣
    👇 👇 👇💓

  32. J.... W....

    I'm a person who says I'm not scared of anything. I have no secrets. Really I'm scared of a lot I have a huge ass secret. People don't want you to know that there going to die or you'll do stuff for them but until I die I'm gonna live live live.

  33. s.... k....

    Such a thoughtful song. Great stuff.

  34. J.... H....

    Never wish your time away

  35. A.... R....

    It's funny how this song, when only heard as 'background music' (*as it often is), sounds like just another happy little song they might play on a loop at your local CVS... and in a lot of ways, it IS that 'happy little song'... but yet, it is SO much more.

    However, (and if you have read this far), when a 'deeper listen' is applied to this modern masterpiece, you soon realize this song delivers quite a deeply emotional & moving message.

    And those of us who are lucky enough to have taken the time to pause, and really absorb & ponder the deep meaning of this song's masterfully written lyrics, are rewarded with the telling of the story of a man lucky enough to have lived a full life - not just in terms of quantity (100 years), but of quality.

    I hope to, one day, to have lived, loved, & died as the 'the truly blessed man' that he sings about in this bittersweet song.

    And happily (or perhaps it's actually sadly), I'm about half-way there.

    note: This is one of a handful of songs that can often bring me to tears. And I feel that if a song can evoke such strong emotions/feelings, especially from the tear ducts of a middle-aged man as myself, then that songwriter is basically.... a legend!

  36. F.... �....

    I'm glad i wasted my high school and college days. If i hadn't, i wouldn't have found this song...

  37. r.... l....

    absen sek Lur

  38. c.... ....

    why my sociology teacher make it an assignment to watch this

  39. D.... T....

    This is wild...I used to listen to this on repeat when I was 13/14 in '06 and forgot about it till now when im 27....

  40. S.... B....

    my childhood song. never know it will be very meaningful to me now. at 15 i'm losing my father and it was the darkest moment in my life, at 22 i'm just finished my degree and move to the largest city in my country to find a job and it is not easy. now i'm 33 and i've never been better but still got a few moment thta always make me want to give up. life is tough but i will living my life gracefully 💜

  41. P.... B....

    Te mooi!

  42. K.... H....

    Poverty can not help me but the rest b no problem thanks cfor has by chance do

  43. P.... T....

    i love this!

  44. M.... S....

    This morning I was thinking about how music can help you heal...this song helped me mourn the loss of my father and my best friend who died of cancer within two months of one another. My losses were great...still are....this song helped me mourn and to remember how precious life is....how fortunate I was to have them as long as I did and how important it is to live life to the fullest with the time you have left....it's a one way trip. Enjoy it.

  45. Z.... T....

    It seems like everyday I listen to this song at least once...such a gem of a song!

  46. M.... E....

    Everyone has that one person they love so much and just want to melt into the arms of and cry with them for so many reasons. I’m fifteen year old, and already missing when I was littler. I think I need a hug.

  47. K.... B....

    love...........forever...................

  48. A.... w....

  49. m.... C....

    So coll is music from indonesia

  50. G.... C....

    I remember when this song came out and I couldn't wait to be 15 for it to make sense! I'm 27 now, still in the absolute prime of my life. Living each day to the fullest because life is way too short not to.

  51. S.... S....

    I love this song.. pleasant to my heart and soul

  52. H.... ....

    This song always makes me cry on the inside but makes me want to have a better day and enjoy as much as I can before my usable life is over.

  53. A.... ....

    I wish I was 15 with all that time again 😭😭

    It’s awful...getting older and losing all that potential and hope.

  54. G.... G....

    I'm 31 at the moment.

  55. R.... ....

    Smallville Greatest Hits

  56. A.... T....

    I just sneezed 12 times

  57. c.... f....

    it feels like life has passed me by and I can't catch up

  58. p.... j....

    This song is really hitting me differently these days. I like it when I was younger, but now I'm in my 30's and realizing how much time has gone by. I really understand this song better now.

    p.... j....

    Wait until you reach 58, you will feel like someone stole all those years from you.

  59. D.... R....

    Love from Indonesia 🇲🇨 😙

  60. L.... ....

    Who is watching this and its 2020??

  61. G.... G....

    AKI’s Story Brought me here ♥️😞 ( Brgy Love Story papa dudut )

  62. A.... R....

    You will be remembered Kobe "Black Mamba" for more than 100 years!

    A.... R....

    Only if America survives that long.

  63. L.... ....

    This song is a cathartic experience for me every time I hear it. As I grow older and love ones start to fade away, I commit to loving my family as hard as I can. This song makes me cry every time I hear it and I play it on purpose sometimes just for that reason. ❤️🙏🏼💔

    L.... ....

    So true

  64. J.... T....

    FOR THE MEMORIES OF KOBE BRYANT, KOBE BRYANT'S DAUGHTER GIANNA BRYANT, AND EVERYONE WHO LOST THEIR LIVES IN CALABASAS CALIFORNIA

    //

    In the loving memories of Kobe Bryant, Gianna Bryant, and Kobe and Gianna's beloved family friends who passed away this week in Calabasas California in a devastating helicopter crash outside Los Angeles, our loving hearts and souls never stop loving and remembering how Kobe, his daughter Gianna, and their beloved family friends touched the lives they loved and our humanity. We will never stop missing you all. We will always carry on your legacies through us. 

    // 

    How you Kobe, Gianna, and your beloved family members you traveled with had proudly lived your lives, taught me the lesson, never stop loving and touching the world through our daily lives. The legacy you cemented Kobe and the legacy you cemented Gianna and the legacy of the helicopter passengers you proudly loved, will always illuminate and touch our lives for the rest of time.

    //

    Kobe, Gianna, and all who lost their lives in Calabasas, we will never stop remembering how you all touched the lives you had by how you lived and loving the legacies you carried out as you shared your lives with us. Your lives went beyond being inspirational, empowering, motivational, and loving. 

    //

    Until we all are reunited with you Kobe, Gianna, and your beloved seven family friends in Heaven, we will always live through your souls. Love never expires. 

    Love your beloved loved ones endlessly and hold them extremely close. You 

    never know when your last seconds of life will be. Light in death never shuts off.

    Song of my lifetime......

  66. I.... F....

    I hope I get cancer

  67. J.... T....

    2020 still when i was a kid

  68. D.... O....

    this song makes me ugly cry every time i listen to it because it just reminds me of how temporary our time here is and how during long days at school and work we wish the time would go by faster but when we realize how little time we have on earth we have to cherish and appreciate every single moment because soon it’ll be gone.

  69. M.... W....

    I was 6 when this song came out. I’m going to be 22 this year. Why does time go so quickly anymore?

  70. M.... D....

    when im feel so sad and full of strees . i want to listen to this song to remids me that im only 26 dispite of all failures i can be sucxesful or great someday

    M.... D....

    That this song makes you feel so deeply shows that you are already a success! Believe in yourself.

  71. A.... ....

    RIP Kobe bryant :(

    A.... ....

    nice try buddy

    A.... ....

    Seriously!? Smh

  72. R.... H....

    What a great video! Great song! Heard this song played at my youngest son’s graduation. I cried.

  73. K.... K....

    Suddenly this makes sense ... I was 15 afew seconds ago.... I was 22 shortly after ..... Now I am 30 faster than I can blink...... That was fast

  74. L.... B....

    Life in this world is temporarily I'm wondering why the world full of hate racism no telerance and fighting for fighting.

  75. C.... D....

    I feel nostalgic.

  76. A.... L....

    Losing a dad a best friend and basically wishing he was still here. Their isn't a way to change that feeling. I can only get emotional when I drink and thinking about him is the first thing I do.

  77. l.... s....

    Song's good but it makes me realize how short life is and then I get a lil depressed

  78. L.... Z....

    Oh dear, I almost forgot how good this song is! 2020 and 100 years still slaps!

  79. T.... B....

    You know what most of you don't know about this song? It has major bass play it with a subwoofer it's fantastic. It will shake you to the core.

  80. K.... F....

    I like how this video starts with a young man & each age the man on the piano gets older...  35, 45, 55, etc...

  81. j.... p....

    I first listened to this when I was 6
    Now I’m 15, I still cry remembering the great memories I had with this song, I’d prefer this song over any modern song because this song can be remembered forever with me.

  86. s.... ....

    The older you get the more relevant you realize this song is 🎼.

  87. M.... L....
