Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
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
