This Time I Won't Forget

Oh, I will try But I tell you it ain't easy using only words And so I'll begin But I'll start at the end, the day I said so long my friend I still remember well His smile that would not die And the tears begin to swell Tears I dare not fight Cause now I'm alive I'm taking my first breath Oh I'm alive And this time I won't forget Now as I look back Wish I'd known that someday soon he'd long be gone So, I will try To remember the end, the day I said so long my friend They go by many names Mother, father, brother, son And the tears begin to swell Tears I dare not fight Cause now I'm alive I'm taking my first breath Oh I'm alive And this time I won't forget Oh I'm alive And this time I won't forget
