Next In Line
We’re all born into a game
One where, we’re dealt the same hand
Dying’s the easy part
It’s living, most don’t understand
There’s winners and there’s losers
Yet everyone will come to play in time
You can’t change what you’ve been dealt
When you’re the next in line
When you’re the next in line
Only time and love are all that really matter
When you’re the next in line
You’ll look back on the good times and the laughter
Goodbye is never easy
Especially when it’s for the final time
So make the best out of life, say you’ve fought the fight
When you’re the next in line
Every mountain starts to crumble
As it fades away from youth
And many are not blessed with
The chance to see this truth
Cause the line keeps on moving
Every second of every passing day
Yes there will come a time, when you’re bound to be resigned
To the fact you’re next in line
When you’re the next in line
Only time and love are all that really matter
When you’re the next in line
You’ll look back on the good times with some sadness
Goodbye is never easy
Especially when it’s for the final time
So make the best of life, say you’ve fought the fight
When you’re the next in line
When you’re the next in line
May you find the light before yours fades away
Before you’re next in line
Take every chance there is to take
When you’re the next in line
May your goodbyes all fall into place
When you’re the next in line, may forgiveness you find
When you’re the next in.....line....
