Oh, what precious time we have
Which is why we can\'t spend our days being sad
Keep your chin up
Keep the love flowing
Till it fills up your cup
I\'ll be gone one day, lost with the wind
But I won\'t be in hell, where all those have sinned
I\'ll be with her too, her great smiling face
Oh how I miss her, she can never be replaced
Life is as delicate as a petal in the snow
Hold it tight, don\'t ever let go
Death will collect when the time is just right
Not when your awake, not ready to die, but while you sleep, the middle of the night
No, no, listen here, that\'s not what I mean
You have lots of time, so many days to be seen
My time will be up, and I know you\'re not ready
But hold on to that petal, reach when you\'re unsteady
I love you forever, forever and then
When your time is up, I\'ll see you again
When you\'re raised above the clouds, up into the sky
You\'ll understand what it means, to truly die
I\'ll meet you there, the imperfections, perfected
I know this is so, for you\'ve been selected
You\'ve been raised quite right, such a kind soul
Innocent as a newborn foal
You\'ll grow up and see what these words truly meant
But till those days come, to the heavens I\'ll be sent
But don\'t be in a hurry to come and find me
You\'ve got a long life
You\'ll grow up and see
The possibilities of this world, your Newfound hope
So run along now and play your jump rope
While you still have the chance
I won\'t be at your wedding to save you a dance
Or watch your kids grow
And talk to me like so
So cherish your friends, with all of your time
Grow up with them, playing with pennies and dimes
Farewell young one, I love you so much
My time is up, the petal flew by, no more strength, lost my clutch
I\'ll ascend up above, and watch you below
Have a great life young child, oh how I love you so...
