When I get the call, I'll be sure to put the pedal to the floor
Cause I know it's what you would want.
And after all, you've done the same for me at least a thousand times.
Even when I didn't know I needed you.
I'd like to use the word "afraid"
But I'm afraid that it just wouldn't do -
But I'm scared that if I pray for angels to take you away...
No matter how much I beg or I ask or I plead with God,
He'll just send an ambulance and it will be over.
It will be over way too soon.
It will be over.
It will be over way too soon.
My father said to me:
"Take your biggest swing at the world and don't give up until
You get exactly where it is you want to be.
And don't you dare love anyone who doesn't deserve your love.
And don't forget me when I'm gone, but carry on.
Forget me when I'm gone, but carry on".
