|
Raise the glass or raise the roof |
|
It's all the same |
|
I raise the chalice for all those |
|
Who are in the grave |
|
I wrote this song to remember |
|
And to never forget |
|
The ones in my heart |
|
Who are now laid to rest |
|
I remember all the joys we had |
|
When you were still here |
|
Thinking of you, my friends |
|
Wets my eyes with tears |
|
But I can't cry forever |
|
'Cos life is ahead |
|
You are always in my heart |
|
So let me sing |
|
One more for the dead |
|
You were the king, you were the clown |
|
Always there hanging around |
|
You might be gone but your spirit lives on |
|
And that is why I sing this song |
|
I wish you had died in my arms |
|
But that wasn't meant to be |
|
I did everything I could |
|
You meant so much to me |
