Yatzy

In a couple of weeks

Your hair will fall to the ground

All that silver and blonde

You saved for so long

And in a couple of months

We're gonna walk through the doors

Inside the hospital walls

Your verdict will fall

But for now, we just keep praying

To a God we try to believe in

And there's a lot of people saying

That it's all 'bout positive thinking

So, I make you drink your vitamins

And we try to keep you laughing

Meditation helps

And have you ever felt

Two hands that practice healing?

Then we cried

Wanna ease your pain

But what can I say?

Wanna play a game?

And we played Yatzy

All night long

And just like with your life

We counted the odds

And the kids where laughing

When we let them win

Please have mercy

'Cause they don't know a thing

And we played Yatzy

All night long

And just like with your life

We counted the odds

But one thing is certain

It ain't your time to go

We just need a full house

And five sixes in a row

And I asked you to tell

Is there something you miss?

Tell me what do you wish?

Do you have a bucket list?

You said

You already swam with dolphins

And there's not anywhere you wanna climb

It aint like missing out on wild things

Is what keeps you up at night

You said all that you want

Are the simplest things

Just for your body to bare

And to stay with your kids

But for now, we just keep praying

To a God we try to believe in

And there's a lot of people saying

That it's all 'bout positive thinking

So I make you drink your vitamins

And we try to keep you laughing

Meditation helps

And have you ever felt

Two hands that practice healing?

Then we cried

Wanna ease your pain

But what can I say?

Wanna play a game?

And we played Yatzy

All night long

And just like with your life

We counted the odds

And the kids where laughing

When we let them win

Please have mercy

'Cause they don't know a thing

And we played Yatzy

All night long

And I've never wished more

Not to write a song

But one thing is certain

It aint your time to go

We just need a full house

And five sixes in a row
