Don't Forget


Life is short
Then you die
Sometimes you're cheerful
And sometimes you cry
 
When life gets tough
You've gotta stick it out
There are times to be silent
And times to be loud
 
But whatever you do
Whoever you meet
Don't forget to say bye
Don't forget to be sweet
 
Life is short
Then you die
Life can be tough
It can make you cry
 
When someone is here
Then they're dead
When no one said bye
All things left unsaid
 
Taken by death
But no more pain
With no bye's or I love you's
What can one possibly gain?
 
Life is short
Life is hard
But then death takes you
In the beat of a heart
 
Life is hard
Then you die
Life is too short
To not say goodbye
