Just One Life
I did not know you, our lives never touched
Til the day they gathered, to bid you farewell
And they painted your picture, and I looked around
I felt I saw you, in the words and the sound
Your talent came flowing, through the stories they tell
And through the faces, of those who loved you so well
Your life gave them a treasure, a piece of themselves
Something they carry, and still serves them well
Just One Life, just One Life
Just One Life, that is born, and is, and is gone
Just One Life, and I m so glad to know you, as I know you now
Perhaps inside you, you were messed up like me
But to them you were whole and strong, and friend in their need
And what you left behind you, and what swept over me
Says that your life s work, Rolls on and on, a piece of eternity
Just One Life, just One Life
Just One Life, that is born, and is, and is gone
Just One Life, Did you ever get a chance to find out, what life?s all about
I did not know you, our lives never touched
Til the day we gathered, to say our farewells
