The greatest of gifts

Sat alone again, sipping a few The old whiskey jar It's as empty as you Now you're gone I can see All that you did Just one more day To be your friend They say to live Each day as your last The reality is We're all tied to a mast Don't dream away These ideas that you have Because the moment is now Just remember to laugh I think it's the greatest of gifts If you've got some then share it with friends We don't know when this ride will end Just where it begins We don't have much time To have a good time
