about

A song about a woman facing up to the fact she is dying and trying to reconcile the life she lived.

lyrics

VERSE 1

Sweet life
Something that you take for granted
Until it’s gone
Or moving on it’s way out

Good friends and lovers
The only thing that matters in the end
Is counting your friends
On more than one hand

When one door closes
Smell the roses
And never forget, never forget
Never forget what is right

CHORUS

When you’re looking back
Back in time
Seeing the world that you’re leaving behind

As we face that far shore
And our life needs accounting for
I can only hope I lived it right
As I drift into the night

VERSE 2

In the end
The truth is I don’t want to go
But the reaper’s knocking on my door
To carry me to that far shore

And I will miss you all
I will miss the love and pain
Until I see you again
Until I see you all again

When one door closes
Smell the roses
And never forget, never forget
Never forget what is right
