Lyrics:

I spoke to a man lying on his death bed
He looked into my eyes and this is what he said
Son I've lived a life long and hard
Done many things and traveled far

So listen to this advice and never forget
Or when you're in this bed you'll regret
Then his breath faltered so I drew near
As his life ebbed away he whispered in my ear

Live for the peaks man
Do it all grab all you can
Head for the mountains don't sleep on the plains
Relish your pleasures learn from your pain
Live on the edge take risks
Or else boredom will slit your wrists

I spoke to a man lying on his death bed
He looked into my eyes and this is what he said

Defy your fear
Live life at high gear
When the drop is steep and the cliff is sheer
When your rope is breaking and your end is near
Then it will all become clear
