Cradle To the Grave

Mother, tell me,
I long to hear the stories
Just like long ago
All these memories
Start to fade before me
I cannot let them go
No, I can't let them go

From the cradle to the grave
It's a fear I can't escape
Where would be my hiding place
When you're gone?

Father, stay here,
Don't leave me like the other
No, I need you so
All you gave me
Father, how you loved me
Treated like your own
Don't ever let me go

From the cradle to the grave
It's a fear I can't escape
Where would be my hiding place
When you're gone?

There's no way to deny
The brevity of life

As time keeps marching on
All we have is lost

As time keeps marching on
All we have is lost

Nothing lasts forever
Nothing stays the same

From the cradle to the grave
It's a fear I can't escape
Where would be my hiding place
When you're gone?

From the cradle to the grave
It's a fear I can't escape
Where would be my hiding place
When you're gone?

How am I to carry on?
How am I to carry on?
As time keeps marching on
How am I to carry on?
All we have is lost

Nothing lasts forever
Nothing ever stays the same
