A Lifetime to Find

Oh death, oh death I was just getting dressed The place is a mess I was hoping you'd forget But I can feel you in my chest I can feel you in my chest Oh yes, oh yes Death never rests I can see you've done your best The problem is just this It is too late for regrets I am here to collect It takes a lifetime to find A life like the life you had in mind It takes a lifetime to find A life like the life you had in mind Now you're mine Oh death, I confess I should've known what to expect But you're so hard to accept Last time that I checked I was neck and neck As happy as the next Yes, yes, yes, you were blessed Blessed in the past tense But it's too late now To make it make sense It is too late to pretend This day won't ever end It takes a lifetime to find A life like the life you had in mind It takes a lifetime to find A life like the life you had in mind Now you're mine So alright, today's the day And tonight is the night There's no reason or no rhyme It's just time to go, goodbye Oh, but why can't you try To ease what's on my poor mind? Oh, let's not obsess It's the best I can do To help you see the light And help the light to see you It's true there is a truth There was you and only you ever knew It takes a lifetime to find A life like the life you had in mind It takes a lifetime to find A life like the life you had in mind It takes a lifetime to find A life like the life you had in mind Now you're mine
