One life to live
With just moments in time
Day by day
Hour by hour
Fading into the night

Weeks rack up
Grand total the years
And we've become
Part of a lifetime
Resisting for change

Memories fade
Emotions die
Hearts thicken
And love awakens
Settling the past

One life to live
Mending experience
While savoring the feeling
Understanding this is temporary
The end will result in death of us all
