Mary Gauthier - Lifetime Lyrics
I called my mama yesterdayto wish her happy birthdayshe said, Babe, your mama's getting old.and I'm glad to be alive today.You know, I'm 10 years cancer freeAnd I thank the good Lord everydayBut Marie's got it bad,And honey, Patsy's passed awayShe SaidA lifetime ain't no time at allA lifetime ain't no time at allAs I listened to my mama's voiceI felt a chill pass right thruI've seen the virus take the boysI got friends that been sick tooI told her bout how Michael diedwith his friends around him everydayhow we all took turns there by his sideand we helped him disappear that way.a lifetime ain't no time at all.a lifetime ain't no time at all.Mama said well ain't we a mess,Child we're full of lifeand scared of death.It must be hell to watch your friends die young,but honey getting old now there's some funLife'd mean nothing if we didn't dieLaughter empty if we didn't cryIt's all the way it's supposed to beIt moves fast it's hard to seecause a lifetime ain't no time at allcause a lifetime ain't no time at all.a lifetime ain't no time at all.
