I’ve no plans
On checking out early
There’s much I still want to do
And my grave’s not yet ready for me
I’ve lived a long life
With my share of regrets
Can’t hide from them
Mistakes I can’t forget
All in all
I can’t complain
Won’t blame the rainbows
For the thirst-quenching rain
Maybe I didn’t
Achieve all my goals
But I knew love in my heart
And it left a smile in my soul
I’m not afraid of dying
Just hope I’ll be remembered
As being better than nothing
A smile that burns a forever ember
And no use
In trying’ to avoid it
I can’t roll back time
I know I can’t restore it
So, when it’s my time to go
You won’t see me kicking and screaming
I’ll be looking’ for those that past before me
Like the Sun I’ll be beaming
Don’t want no one crying over me
May the last thing I see is your smiling face
As I go on down the line
Crossing over to that Heavenly place
