Death comes to us all O yes it does Swift as a bolt of lightning Silent as a tiger stalking its prey Will I lay in eternal slumber Or will I rise again someday Oh please don’t let tears roll down your cheeks darling How I wish I could be there right now to stop you from crying And as much as I would like to stay Even for a second more My time has come and so I’ve got to go But remember what they used to say? A person will live on in the memory of others Where time is perpetual and there’s no sorrow My journey might have been short but it sure was meaningful And I hope you feel the same way too Even though I might be gone And life still has to go on All I ask is that I won’t be forgotten Told myself I’ll forever be grateful no matter what happens For at least we’ve got each other And unlike life the love we share will never expire As the sun sets and stars take over the sky Perhaps it’s time
The motto of chivalry is also the motto of wisdom; to serve all, but love only one.
