lyrics

When I look at you gently
I see you've grown old.
You say life's been good
But heaven's taken hold.
You say what you've learned
I hang on each breath.
You say you're goin' home
There isn't any death.

Who have you loved and
What have you done?
It's not for countin'
The times you have one.
Did you put back together
What life tore apart?
Were you courageous
Did you mend your own heart.

You look at me gently
See the price that I pay
When my worry 'bout tomorrow
Steals the joy from today.
You want me to know
There's no brass ring to chase.
Always believe in unexpected grace.

Who have you loved and
What have you done?
It's not for countin'
The times you have one.
Did you put back together
What life tore apart?
Were you courageous
Did you mend your own heart.

You look at me gently
You say soon I'll grow old.
Look for the good
Before heaven takes hold.
As your words turn to whispers
I listen intently.
You tell me remember
Look at life gently.

Who have you loved and
What have you done?
It's not for countin'
The times you have one.
Did you put back together
What life tore apart?
Were you courageous
Did you mend your own heart.
