Livin’ On

Yeah, there I was

Staring out the window in the car ride

Half crying, watching all the cars as they passed by

In my head, I was just having such a hard time

Tryna comprehend I'd see you for the last time, grandma

And as mum turned around and gazed at me, I

Could see the pain in her eyes but she

Kept telling me, "It's all right, it's all right

It'll be all okay"

So I tried to shake it off and get my mind prepared

Having visions, reminiscing on the time we shared

I remember walking in and seeing you just lying there

Tryna stare down to hide the fact that I was scared

I made a final prayer but it was no use

'Cause we both knew this was something that we'd have to go through

I just never thought it would be so soon

Shit, I mean I'm only just getting to know you

We said goodbye

Tears in our eyes

So young, why'd I

Didn't know why

It's like I felt a part of me that opened up

For that moment that we spoke and then I closed it shut

And I know it's part of growing up

But I was only young so the low was tough to overcome

'Cause things have changed, I miss the way

You always seemed to transport me to this blissful place

Where we'd drift away

And all the worries of the world would just dissipate

So when I reach my final resting place

I don't know if you'll be there to open heaven's gates

Or my ghost will just float off into empty space

Whatever end awaits, I hope I see my friend again

Until then, in my mind, the time we shared never fades

I still remember it like it was yesterday

And though I was devastated when you went away

In my memory, you'll forever be there to stay

We said goodbye

Tears in our eyes

So young, why'd I

Didn't know why

You're living on

You're living on my mind (Yeah, you're still right here)

You're living on

You're living on my mind

When I'm broken and I need to mend

I talk it over with my old friend

She don't say much, not too much at all

But I feel better every time we talk

And when I'm happy, skipping on air

She's right with me, she's always there

I feel her smile and then she's gone

But not for long, she keeps living on

Never goodbye

You're still on my mind

I'm walking through life

You're walking behind

Never goodbye

Never goodbye (Yeah, you're still right here)

I'm walking through life

You're walking behind (Yeah)

You're living on

You're living on in time (Yeah, you're still right here)

You're living on

You're living on my mind

You're living on

You're living on in time
