I guess it's just the circumstance
The end is getting near
Not what I had planned
To be thankful you're not here
Somehow I didn't reach
My most heartfelt goal
Just wanted you to know
You've made a difference in my soul
Faced with fleeting glimpses
Of moments that I've had
So close and very real
Finality's tightened grasp
It's now that i can see
I've led a charmed life
A pocketful of victories
To add to life's long past
CHORUS
Next time we'll get it right
In another life, in another time
Next time will be our time
A love so strong to span all time
Where souls collide
If you should meet a man
Or boy with well-known grin
Please remember what I've said
I know what you believe in
You see, the power of a soul
Is something still unknown
But of one thing I am sure
Love outlives flesh and bone
CHORUS
