525,600 Minutes

This is fast becoming one of my favorite songs. It's the perfect reminder of what's important as 2005 inches to a close and we're presented with a brand new 525,600 minutes in 2006.

Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred moments so dear.
Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year?
In daylights, in sunsets,
in midnights, in cups of coffee.
In inches, in miles,
in laughter, in strife.
In five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
how do you measure a year in the life?
How about love?
How about love?
How about love?
Measure in love.
Seasons of love.
Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes.
Five hundred twenty-five thousand journeys to plan.
Five hundred twenty-five thousand minutes.
How do you measure the life of a woman or man?
In truths that she learned,
or in times that he cried.
In bridges he burned,
or the way that she died.
It's time now to sing out,
though the story never ends.
Let's celebrate remember a year in the life of friends.
Remember the love.
Remember the love.
Remember the love.
Measure in love.
Seasons of love.
Seasons of love.
Measure your life in love...
Seasons of Love, from the musical RENT
