From the recording Quiet Thunder
Lyrics
I lost all my brothers
Sister tried to leave us once
And I held on to mama’s hand as my sister fought
For her life for months
She was stronger than I could ever be
Don’t think God thought I could handle one more tragedy
When all my loved ones are gone
will I go on and on
What’s the point
Can’t make sense outta much these days
When all my loved ones are gone
Will I go on and on
I gave all my life to
raising up this beautiful family
now that they’re gone and grown I’m forced to see
how little of myself I saved for me
Don’t get me wrong I’d do it all again
Cause I know someday they’ll come to understand
When all your loved ones are gone
life goes on and on
What’s the point can’t make sense outta much these days
When all your loved ones are gone
Life goes on and on and on and on
I’m looking back on those moments where
I forgot to take notice and
my eyes keep getting worse
but life’s coming into focus and
we’re dropping like flies
on this loaner time
so you best be getting to making your mark
on this planet and on all of our hearts
When all your loved ones are gone
life goes on and on
that’s the point to make sense outta loves terrain
When all your loved ones are gone
Life goes on and on
someday we’ll all be gone
life goes on and on
