M. Lockwood Porter - While We're Here

It's a new world, it's never gonna be the same
I'll miss the one I've known, though it drove me near insane
But maybe all of this now seems like a funny game
Wherever you are

We all just run around, trying to get the pain to stop
Tryin' to buy a house in town, waiting for the price to drop
Tryin' to drown the grinding sound, thinking if I reach the top
I'll finally be free

While we're here
Our little lives are everything we've got
We pretend they're never ending, though they're not
So chalk that up as one more thing you taught me
It'll come in handy

I haven't cried, I hope you don't take it wrong
I always tried to tell you how I felt in song
The night you died, was the journey hard and long
Or was it just like the wind

I like to think
That everything's connected in some way
Now you're a million tiny molecules and they
Are floating all around me every day
I can reach out and touch you

While we're here
Our little lives are everything we've got
We pretend they're never ending though they're not
Thank you for everything you taught me
It's come in handy
