I Lived Life My Way

There comes a day When our time on earth takes us away Everything in rewind Running through your mind It's all on display In the most wonderful way It all seems to unwind Like a movie that you can see If you were blind No time to ask why As hard as we try Our time on earth has passed us by Everything extreme turned up on high I'm going to miss you all as it's my turn to fly Please do not cry for me My time is here The time most of us fear When our time is near Time on earth is so dear It all plays out like a big premiere I love you all very much Think of me often that way we stay in touch Know that we all must die At this point, I'm not asking myself why My heart is weak And soon I will cease to speak When my soul will be released To be able to fly into the sky Where I can shine on high As each new day passes us by Remember we learn to laugh and cry Without asking each other why Someday we will reunite When your flight comes into sight Know everything between us set right I'm tired of this fight My life with God will be so bright For a piece of all of you, I take with me Now that my soul has been set free Don't worry God is right beside me Now I have to let things be Keep all your wonderful memories of you and me Because our friendship was always meant to be
