As I'm getting older (70 next year) I started thinking about mortality. This song is the result: https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=14959792

BLACK ROSES

We're too soon old and too late wise
As we've spent the currency of time
Now I know the days before me number
Fewer than the days I've left behind

All that time would have been wasted
Had you never walked into my life
And I didn't need to be persuaded
Cos you made me feel so alive

Chorus:
But now I'm good with God
I've made my peace
So when it's my time to go
Say a little prayer for my soul
And lay black roses on my grave

Bridge:
I've always known where heaven is kept
And I want to die there as I slept
In your arms, angel, in your arms
And if my last words weren't I love you
It's only cos I ran out of time

Chorus
But now I'm good with God
I've made my peace
So when it's my time to go
Say a little prayer for my soul
And lay black roses on my grave
