Fade Away

Verse 1
Born to this world.
The time has come.
A new life is born. A new journey just begun.
We teach our children all that we know.
And slowly fade away.
Everything returns, to whence it came. 
No one really knows why it’s got to be that way.

Chorus
Every Flower has its season and slowly fades way.
Every Flower has its season and slowly fades way.
Every Flower has its season and slowly fades way.

Verse 2 
And if we’re lucky they taught us well.
The skills we need to survive this world.
And how to live lifr well. 
The saddest death, known unto man.
Is to die with a bitter heart and lose faith in God’s plan.

Chorus
No one really knows why its got to be that way.
The people left behind sometimes can barely stand the pain.

Chorus
No one really knows why its got to be that way.
The people left behind sometimes can barely stand the pain.
