We all know it will happen
It’s how life goes
You come into the world kickin’ and screamin’
Then at some point out we go
My only hope is that when the time comes
That my number is called
I’m blessed with the time to look everyone in the eyes
And remind you I love you all
But time’s a cruel mistress
And trust her you should not
Cause when it’s your time, it’s your time
Doesn’t matter how hard you fought
So tell ’em you love ’em
In case you don’t get a shot
Don’t leave ’em wonderin’
If you loved them or not
I seen good men fall with dreams half-spent
Still savin’ up for “someday.”
Never got to take that road trip
Or walk their daughter down the way
And I ain’t some preacher, just a workin’ man
But I know this much is true
Don’t wait to say what’s in your heart
Cause it won’t wait on you
Yeah, time’s a cruel mistress
And trust her you should not
Cause when it’s your time, it’s your time
Doesn’t matter how hard you fought
So tell ’em you love ’em
In case you don’t get a shot
Don’t leave ’em wonderin’
If you loved them or not
Call your momma, hug your kid
Kiss your wife when the day begins
Say “I’m proud of you” to your old man
While you still can
So I’ll leave this song like a letter
For anyone listenin’ in
We don’t get forever
But we sure as hell can begin
To make the time we do get count
Even if it’s just today
Say the words, live the love
Don’t let it slip away
Cause time’s a cruel mistress
And trust her you should not
When it’s your time, it’s your time
Doesn’t matter how hard you fought
So tell ’em you love ’em
In case you don’t get a shot
Don’t leave ’em wonderin’
If you loved them or not
Don’t leave ’em wonderin’
If you loved ’em or not
