The old never grow young
Yet the young grow old so fast
And we all end up with a sad song sung
Keep the memories but don't dwell in the past
We all have long lost dearly departed
Some of which we took for granted
But you'll never forget the lives they started
Or those smiles they had that were oh so slanted
They might have left us in the world of real
But they're with us forever in our hearts
We all want some extra time, maybe some to steal
But we all have a time when our train departs
Don't live on with your soul weeping in sorrow
That's not what those gone want to see from above
There's another life, and another day tomorrow
So live on, and cherish what we should all share; Love
