Lyrics
Have I done everything I wanted to?
Have I done my best,
Are there no regrets?
Have I done everything I needed to?
Has it all been said,
Have I checked my list?
Cause it's my time,
I've saved all my goodbyes for the end,
Now it's coming to a close.
It's my time,
I am ready to go, my friend,
And I am not afraid
All the questions that have come to mind
Can I answer yes,
Are there any left?
Have I given my love to everyone?
Has my heart been blessed
Will I be missed?
Cause it's my time,
I've saved all my goodbyes for the end,
Now it's coming to a close.
It's my time,
I am ready to go, my friend,
And I am not afraid
It's... My... Time to say goodbye
The curtains have been closed.
It's... My... Time... To go
Away from here.
Will I hold on to these memories?
I just think I might,
I will hold on tight.
Can I move on to another life?
Will I be alright
With the end in sight?
