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?      Chorus:   We live we love   We forgive and never give up   Cuz 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   Cuz 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      Chorus      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 cuz 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 cuz life is worth living      Chorus (to fade)
