There's a cross on the side of the road
Where a mother lost a son
How could she know that the morning he left
Would be their last time she'd trade with him for a little more time
So she could say she loved him one last time
And hold him tight
But with life we never know

When we're coming up to the end of the road
So what do we do then
With tragedy around the bend?

We live we love
We forgive and never give up
'Cause the days we are given are gifts from above
Today we remember to live and to love
We live we love
We forgive and never give up
'Cause the days we are given are gifts from above
Today we remember to live and to love

There is a man who waits for the tests
To see if the cancer has spread yet
And now he asks, "So why did I wait to live till it was time to die?"
If I could have the time back how I'd live
Life is such a gift
So how does the story end?
Well this is your story and it all depends
So don't let it become true
Get out and do what we are meant to do

We live we love
We forgive and never give up
'Cause the days we are given are gifts from above
Today we remember to live and to love
We live we love
We forgive and never give up
'Cause the days we are given are gifts from above
Today we remember to live and to love

Waking up to another dark morning
People are mourning
The weather in life outside is storming
But what would it take for the clouds to break
For us to realize each day is a gift somehow, someway
So get our heads up out of the darkness
And spark this new mindset and start to live life 'cause it ain't gone yet
And tragedy is a reminder to take off the blinders
And wake up and live the life we're supposed to take up
Moving forward with all our heads up 'cause life is worth living

We live we love
We forgive and never give up
'Cause the days we are given are gifts from above
Today we remember to live and to love
We live we love
We forgive and never give up
'Cause the days we are given are gifts from above
Today we remember to live and to love
