One Day This Life Will Be Over

One day this life will be over
all those memories you had
One day this life will close it’s curtain
Won’t that day seem sad

One day this life it’s gonna stop
Like a wave crashing to shore
One day this life is going to wash away
won’t see your footprints no more

All those memories
Where did they go?
All those memories
What was to show?
All those memories
Lord please above
All those memories
Who did you love?

One day this life will be over
This pain it will go
One day this world will come tumbling
Like a new fallen snow

Angels eyes will gaze
At this tremendous haze
I will wonder what I did
I will wonder why I didn’t

One day this life will be something
That I can’t describe
One day this life will be over
but hope it won’t die

All those memories
Where did they go?
All those memories
What was to show?
All those memories
Lord please above
All those memories
Who did you love?

One day this life will be over
That time is not now
I want to fall in love with you again
But I can’t recall how
