lyrics

If I were dead and gone tomorrow
Would you still remember me
What would you do or say
Would you grieve in my absence
Or forget that I am gone
And never coming back
Would you look back at the time
That we spent together
Or would you start a new chapter
And even though some day
You'll have to move on anyway
What would you do or say

In my twenty years of living
I hadn't thought of my end
When I am dead and gone in time
For the clock is always ticking
The drain is always draining
Don't give it thought
And move on down the line

I was snowed in at home
Not much else to do
Except watch it come down
Well my lamp grew dim
Fading out slow
Coming to an end
Well that fire then died
My room it got cold
Night turned into day
And I woke up
On some sunny day
Though I still feel cold

Before I knew it
My life had passed me by
I'm old and nearing the end
In my lifetime I tried
Not to live with regret
For all the things I did not do
But it's hard to see
My own mortality
Pass me by with the sun
And with my life draining down
Slowly turning grey
There's not much else I can say

In my twenty years of living
I hadn't thought of my end
When I am dead and gone in time
For the clock is always ticking
The drain is always draining
Don't give it thought
And move on down the line

And move on down the line
