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
