If today became my final day, I know I'd be all right I'd go see Mom and Dad again somewhere beyond this life I'd find the ones who went before and buy them all a beer I'm not afraid of going—I can't wait to see them there
You've all been friends of mine and we need to raise a glass You gave me love and purpose and sometimes you kicked my ass And when I think about goodbye, the hardest thing I know Is I'll be gone from here and there will be no more hello
I'm not afraid of dying; I'm afraid to leave Afraid of all the tears you'll cry and how your hearts will grieve Life is everything we have, and love is why we're here I'm not afraid of where I'm going—I'm afraid to leave you here
I never feared much of anything along the way I faced the storms life handed me and made it through each day But losing someone that you love can bring you to your knees You never want to say goodbye to those you'll always need
I'm not afraid of dying; I'm afraid to leave Afraid of all the tears you'll cry and how your hearts will grieve Life is everything we have, and love is why we're here I'm not afraid of where I'm going—I'm afraid to leave you here
So when my voice grows quiet and my time is finally through Don't remember how I left—remember how I loved you Speak my name and tell our stories; laugh the way we used to do Every time you feel that love, I'll still be there with you
I'm not afraid of dying; I'm afraid to leave Afraid of all the tears you'll cry and how your hearts will grieve Life is everything we have, and love is why we're here I'm not afraid of where I'm going—I'm afraid to leave you here
If today became my final day, I'd want you all to know I'm not afraid of going… I'm just afraid to go.
