To Death In Your Life
When we were young, did you listen
To all the cars that zoomed on by then
When we were young, could you hear
All of the people that spoke in your ear
When we grew older, did you see
All of the people growing up with me
When we grew older, did your eyes
Catch all the people that told us lies
When we got old, did you feel
The creaking and the clanging of steel
When we got old, could you touch
All of the hands that were broken and such
Now that we've died, do you regret
All that we knew and the people we met
Now that we've died, do you lament
Never telling our loved ones how much they meant
