Bears - Dave lyrics

He counted up his fears one day and they weren't worth a dime He cried a lot of tears for her And his life felt like a marathon - man, how long can this last? He slowed down for a little drink and didn't see the winner pa** Last saturday morning we missed the warning The pain got boring - his soul went soaring She used to be too young to understand and now she's just too old Can't shut the door on her regrets - she'll never be that cold And i could have been a better friend - i can see where i went wrong I hid beneath my selfishness like i hide behind this song Last saturday morning we missed the warning Nothing lasts forever And nothing could be sadder than a child taking his own life I heard the minister mumble, i heard the falling rain And i felt my mother's hand slip into mine And none of us have ever been the same
