I hear your bodyu0027s giving up
Itu0027s getting harder to breathe
Youu0027ve been fighting for decades
Now itu0027s showing itu0027s teeth
No time is ever enough, aged silver and gold
A twelve hour drive beats goodbyes over the phone

They say it gets easier but still
I just donu0027t think it will

Itu0027s not about the time it takes
Or these promises youu0027ll never break
A lifetime of memories, all those people you love
I know that itu0027s tough, I hear your bodyu0027s giving up

I heard youu0027re losing the fight
Itu0027s getting harder to sleep
These uncomfortable beds, tied up to all these machines
I took advantage of time, and just hearing you speak
But your skinu0027s getting pale and your voice is so weak

It must be hard to talk about the things you know youu0027ll never see
But still you listened to me

Itu0027s not about the time it takes
Or these promises youu0027ll never break
A lifetime of memories, those people you love
I know that itu0027s tough, I know

They say itu0027s not about the breaths you take
But the times that take your breath away
Time is never enough, life is calling your bluff
And I know that itu0027s tough
I hear your bodyu0027s giving up

And weu0027re all safe
Close your eyes donu0027t be afraid
Scattered ashes now
From the canyon to the clouds
