song, "the countdown" (personal favorite)

Can you do me a favor?
Can you try to savor
This moment, for eternity
For you wont always have me
Can you at least hold
The part of me untold
As I’m pushed down the set path
I want you to stay to take a bath
In all the glory, and continue your story
I must ask you not to worry
There’s no if, but, or maybe
I will wait for you baby

As I pace above, with all my love
I want you to know who I’m thinking of
Everything that you showed me, that you told me
Every time that you would hold me
Are the only things I choose to care about
A lifetime of your love is a fair amount
And with love, I leave these memories for you

This isn’t the time for high hopes
Nor the time to sit and mope
Remember all that is and was nice
Remember all the good advice
That you earned, in time you learned
All the favors you’ve returned
Keep hold of the good times
That you used to take as signs
Just carry on, and move on
don’t stop having fun
And as I step up to take my turn
I want you to know, you are my only concern

As I pace above, with all my love
I want you to know who I’m thinking of
Everything that you showed me, that you told me
Every time that you would hold me
Are the only things I choose to care about
A lifetime of your love is a fair amount
And with love, I leave these memories for you
