I heard your body's given up
It's getting harder to breathe
You've been fighting for decades
Now It's showing it's teeth
No time is ever enough
Aged silver and gold
A twelve hour drive beats goodbyes over the phone
They say it gets easier but still
I just don't think it will
Oh, It's not about the time it takes
Or these promises you'll never break
A lifetime of memories, all those people you love
And I know that it's tough
I hear your body's given up
I heard you're losing the fight
It's getting harder to sleep
These uncomfortable beds, tied up to all these machines
I took advantage of time
And just hearing you speak
But your skin's getting pale, and your voice is so weak
It must be hard to talk about
The things you know you'll never see
But still you listened to me
It's not about the time it takes
Or these promises you'd never break
A lifetime of memories, those people you love
I know that it's tough, I know
They say it's not about the breaths you take
But the times that take your breath away
Time is never enough, life is calling your bluff
And I know that it's tough
I heard your body's given up
"I love you to pieces."
And we're all same
Close your eyes, don't be afraid
Scattered ashes now
From the canyon to the clouds
To the cloud
To the cloud
To the
