It was a Sunday when his phone ran,  "I know how busy you have been, I'm   just calling to check in." Heard his  voice, I knew then it happened again.  This one was different, I knew he meant  it, but the pain's always the same. Heart   of gold he'll take the blame, and better  days is losing it's ring. If this means   something at all... I, I know we're not  like them- Couldn't be if we tried. Life  on life's terms ain't easy. Told me the   story, all too familiar. It was a ghost   from the past, really thought this one   would last. Baby boy, you deserve so much  more. I hate to see it happen to a friend,  Why does lesser guys win in the end? She   won't know what she had until you're gone.  She lost a good one. I've found that when   it all turns to a mess, look back and see   it happened for the best. Try to heek your  chin up though the tests. You've just gotta  have faith. If this means something at  all... I, I know we're not like them-  Couldn't be if we try. Life on life's   terms ain't easy, just gotta take it in   stride. And I'm by your side, you've been   by mine though the good and the bad, yeah.  And all those nights when we'd just drive,  and we felt all alone in the world. Look  out tonight and we were right. Look how far  we've come and now is our time. I, I now   we're not like them- Couldn't be if we   tried. Life one Life's terms ain't easy,   just gotta take it in stride.
