This Time I Won't Forget

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
