[Verse 1]
I don't think I could sing this song to you
Hold my lips and power through
Think about a different day
I don't think I could do this without tears
Pick a moment fly the years
What can there be left to say?
[Refrain]
Oh, my life is a song for you
Oh, my life is a song for you
[Verse 2]
I don't think I could hide you in my mind
All those questions left behind
Answers in forgotten dreams
I don't think I could lead it like you lead
Read the books that you once read
Back in other lives
[Chorus]
Oh, you would hate this to be sad
The moments we've had
And I've just found out that life is a goddamn miracle
And the ending is a song
And there are a lifetime of words that I could say
But I've got none
[Verse 3]
I don't think I could love you any more
Take a minute, feel it soar
I have got this till I'm gone
And if there is a light that tumbles through
How could it just not be you hiding in the sun?
[Chorus]
Oh, you would hate this to be sad
The moments we've had
And I've just found out that life is a goddamn miracle
And the ending is a song
And there are a lifetime of words that I could say
But I've got none
[Verse 4]
I don't think I could sing this song to you
Hold my lips and power through
Think about a different day
[Refrain]
Oh, my life is a song for you
Oh, my life is a song for you
