<br>he counted up his fears one day and they weren`t worth a dime <br>he cried a lot of tears for her �cause he wasn`t worth her time <br>and his life felt like a marathon - man, how long can this last? <br>he slowed down for a little drink and didn`t see the winner pass <br>last Saturday morning we missed the warning <br>the pain got boring - his soul went soaring <br>she used to be too young to understand and now she`s just too old <br>can`t shut the door on her regrets - she`ll never be that cold <br>and i could have been a better friend - i can see where i went wrong <br>i hid beneath my selfishness like i hide behind this song <br>last Saturday morning we missed the warning <br>nothing lasts forever �cept maybe jesus christ <br>and nothing could be sadder than a child taking his own life <br>i heard the minister mumble, i heard the falling rain <br>and i felt my mother`s hand slip into mine <br>and none of us have ever been the same
