Oh, I will try
But I tell you it ain't easy using only words
And so I'll begin
But I'll start at the end, the day I said so long my friend
I still remember well
His smile that would not die
And the tears begin to swell
Tears I dare not fight
Cause now I'm alive
I'm taking my first breath
Oh I'm alive
And this time I won't forget
Now as I look back
Wish I'd known that someday soon he'd long be gone
So, I will try
To remember the end, the day I said so long my friend
They go by many names
Mother, father, brother, son
And the tears begin to swell
Tears I dare not fight
Cause now I'm alive
I'm taking my first breath
Oh I'm alive
And this time I won't forget
Oh I'm alive
And this time I won't forget
