Cradle to the Grave

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Mother, tell me I long to hear the stories Just like long ago All these memories Start to fade before me I cannot let them go No, I can't let them go [Chorus] From the cradle to the grave It's a fear I can't escape Who will be my hiding place When you're gone? Oh Oh, oh [Verse 2] Father, stay here Don't leave me like the other Know I need you so All you gave me Father, how you loved me Treated like your own Don't ever let me go [Chorus] From the cradle to the grave It's a fear I can't escape Who will be my hiding place When you're gone? [Bridge] There's no way to deny The brevity of life As time keeps marching on All we have is lost [Guitar Solo] As time keeps marching on All we have is lost Nothing lasts forever Nothing stays the same [Chorus] From the cradle to the grave It's a fear I can't escape Who will be my hiding place When you're gone? From the cradle to the grave It's a fear I can't escape Who will be my hiding place When you're gone? [Outro] How am I to carry on? How am I to carry on? (As time keeps marching on) How am I to carry on? (All we have is lost) Nothing lasts forever Nothing ever stays the same
