Over & Gone

My mother told me long ago
What comes easy, won't last long, don't you know?
And she would hold me long ago
Been drilled in my head, easy come, easy go

It could be over, could be gone
In the blink of an eye
Now I'm always afraid
That I won't have said goodbye
And I know there is nothing I can do to change our fate
But when it's over, when it's gone
It's gonna be too late

My father told me
You reap what you sow
Guess it's true, he taught me everything I know
He also told me
Not to runaway
When things get a little rough he told me not to be afraid

Could be over, could be gone
In the blink of an eye
Now I'm always afraid
That I won't have said goodbye
And I know there is nothing I can do to change our fate
But when it's over, when it's gone
It's gonna be too late

I was told to pay my dues and I was taught to do my best
Then every now and then I'd get a little something back
Well I have been paying my dues and I been trying my best
I will leave it up to fate and put my faith to the test

It could be over, could be gone
In the blink of an eye
Now I'm always afraid
That I won't have said goodbye
And I know there is nothing I can do to change our fate
But when it's over, when it's gone
When it's over, when it's gone
It could be over, could be gone
In the blink of an eye
Now I'm always afraid
That I won't have said goodbye
And I know there is nothing I can do to change our fate
But when it's over, when it's gone
I hope it's not too late
