There's a man dying on the side of the road
Won't make it home tonight
He was driving fast on his cell phone
That's how he lived his life
While he was hanging by a thread
These were the final words he said
"My girl turns sweet sixteen today
She's beautiful, so beautiful
It might get rough sometimes
But I hope she keeps her faith"
(Hope she keeps her faith)
I wish I grabbed a chance
To say to her
Life is too short
So take the time and appreciate
There's a women crying on the kitchen floor
She got a call tonight
Now she's trembling outside her daughter's door
Walks in and holds her tight
Wondering how and where to start
Is there a way to shield her heart?
My girl turns sweet sixteen today
She's beautiful, so beautiful
It might get rough sometimes
But I hope she keeps her faith
(Hope she keeps her faith)
I wish I grabbed a chance
To say to her
Life is too short
So take the time and appreciate
Any but a loving way
Get hurt along the way
Don't be afraid to open up
And use the time you have
Before it fades
Show your love today
My girl turns sweet sixteen today
She's beautiful, so beautiful
It might get rough sometimes
(It might get rough sometimes)
But I hope she keeps her faith
(Hope she keeps her faith)
I wish I grabbed a chance
To say to her
Life is too short
So take the time and appreciate
Life is too short
So take the time and appreciate

this song is so beautiful!(L) I love it and I'm sure I'm not the only one :D
sthmde.
this is song is the best song these boys have ever written. the girl has an amazing voice & the lyrics have a really good story to it. its one of the best stories anybody has ever told in a song in a very long time. dont get these kind of songs anymore. ones to make ME cry. im not much of a crying person. but this song?really touchs my heart & makes me realise how important it is to have a father. im nearlly seventeen & reading these lyrics. makes me really apreciate the fact that my dad was still around for my 16th & is still here today. you never know what could happen or when its going to happen. so like they say. take the time & appreciate
good song boys. #1 super duper jonas fan :D - K.S.J.S

who sings this song? I'm told that is sung by jonas brothers but sounds like the voise of a girl..anyway love this song but it makes me cry

It's Nick Jonas. It's from his solo album before he became mega famous for singing with his brothers in the band. I think he's about 14 or 15 here. I'm not sure, so I think that's why it sounds like a girl. But I do agree, it's an amazing song.

this is a really, sad song. but it makes me think about life, and how lucky i am to have the kind i do. i often take so much for granted. i didn't previously know the jonas brothers didn;t write this, but it doesn't matter to me, this just makes me love them so much more. even IF nick sounds like a girl singing it.
