Many people fear death
but it is part of this story
They don't know they are
part of this grand design
Take one step at a time
it makes traveling easier
never to stay lying in the fire
[Refrain 1]
From this earth you have come
and to this earth
you will return yet again
But everything in due time
[Refrain 2]
It's time to live this life
from this moment to the last day
there's time to rest in the coffin
Life is a sum of incidents
You can't always foresee
what tomorrow will bring
it is part of the story
Take one step at a time
it makes traveling easier
never to stay lying in the fire
[Refrain 1]
[Refrain 2]
I tell you about this life
what was most important
and what was insignificant
What was the meaning of life
It is an enigma
[Refrain 1]
[Refrain 2]
