one day you're gone

One day you're here and one day you're gone
You beat to the drum but you keep moving on
And nobody knows when the next name is called
Cause one day you're here and one day you're gone

So I got on the phone and I talked to my mom
She said there's only a few things you can control
Like the will of your heart and the peace in your mind
There's only so much you could see with your eyes

(Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
Sometimes it's hard to put in words
(Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
Nobody knows the way it hurts
(Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
Broken bones you live and learn
Cause we all know that a good thing ends
But someday I hope that it'll all make sense

The day before last was the first time we talked
Before we took a path that split both us apart
Only a matter of years till you're off in the stars
Cause one day you're here and one day you're gone

(Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
Sometimes it's hard to put in words
(Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
Nobody knows the way it hurts
(Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
Broken bones you live and learn
Cause we all know that a good thing ends
But someday I hope that it'll all make sense

(Ohh, ohh)
One day you're here and one day you're gone
