We were just driving
In a little old town
I'd rather have you in a white coat, baby
Than have you in a gown
To see you at your best
Well it feels like flying
Maybe I'll get some rest
Now that you're thriving
The universe
Can give you what you're worth
If you just invest
I can close my little eyes and be grateful that I was there
On the day, that you, took flight
And as for you, my dear
How have the years gone by?
You're right in front of me fading
Wonderin' what could have been
To see you at your worst
Well it feels like dying
Maybe I'll get some rest
If I saw you were trying
The universe
Can give you so much worse
If you don't invest
Well a small part of me is still foolishly hangin' on
For the day, that you, take flight
