In This Life lyrics

Sitting on a park bench

Thinking about a friend of mine

He was only twenty-three

Gone before he had his time

It came without a warning

Didn't want his friends to see him cry

He knew the day was dawning

And I didn't have a chance to say goodbye

In this life I loved you most of all

What for?

Because now you're gone and I have to ask myself

What for?

What for?

Driving down the boulevard

Thinking about a man I knew

He was like a father to me

Nothing in the world that he wouldn't do

Taught me to respect myself

Said that we're all made of flesh and blood

Why should he be treated differently

Shouldn't matter who you choose to love

In this life I loved you most of all

What for?

Because now you're gone and I have to ask myself

What for?

People pass by and I wonder who's next

Who determines, who knows best

Is there a lesson I'm supposed to learn in this case

Ignorance is not bliss

In this life I loved you most of all

What for?

Because now you're gone and I have to ask myself

What for?

Have you ever watched your best friend die (what for)

Have you ever watched a grown man cry (what for)

Some say that life isn't fair (what for)

I say that people just don't care (what for)

They'd rather turn the other way (what for)

And wait for this thing to go away (what for)

Why do we have to pretend (what for)

Some day I pray it will end

I hope it's in this life

I hope it's in this life time
