|
A windy day |
|
The cars in slow formation |
|
Not far away |
|
A final destination |
|
One mother's son |
|
His father's distant gaze, regretting |
|
Where they went wrong |
|
He always found it too upsetting |
|
|
|
Me and my friend |
|
We lived our lives completely |
|
From start to end |
|
You and your friend, so sweetly |
|
With strength and pride |
|
In spite of everything, and swimming |
|
Against the tide |
|
To obstinately hope of winning |
|
|
|
And at the end |
|
Your funny uncle staring |
|
At all your friends |
|
With military bearing |
|
And stopped to stand |
|
To smile and speak of you directly |
|
Goodbye, shake hands |
|
Like you did everything correctly |
|
|
|
To wipe away the tears |
|
No more pain, no fear |
|
No sorrow or dying |
|
No waiting or crying |
|
These former things have passed away |
|
Another life begins today |
