Sitting
on a park bench Thinking about a friend of mine He was only 23 Gone
before he had his time It came without a warning Didn't want his friends
to see him cry He knew the day was dawning And I didn't have a chance to
say goodbye
Chorus:
In this life I loved you most of
all What for? 'Cause now you're gone and I have to ask myself What
for?
What for? Driving down the boulevard Thinking about a man I
knew He was like a father to me Nothing in the world that he wouldn't
do Taught me to respect myself Said that we're all made of flesh and
blood Why should he be treated differently Shouldn't matter who you choose
to love
(chorus)
Intermediate:
People
pass by and I wonder who's next Who determines, who knows best Is there a
lesson I'm supposed to learn in this case Ignorance is not
bliss
(chorus) (intermediate)
Have you ever
watched your best friend die [what for] Have you ever watched a grown man cry
[what for] Some say that life isn't fair [what for] I say that people just
don't care [what for] They'd rather turn the other way [what for] And wait
for this thing to go away [what for] Why do we have to pretend [what
for] Some day I pray it will end
I hope it's in this life I hope
it's in this life time (repeat)
