"For The Future" lyrics

They'll never replace you
And ain't it a shame
'Cause the world's so much poorer without you
Without you

We'll never forget you
You're more than a name
That we sewed on the quilt we laid
On the grass, 87

When we fought so hard
And we danced so hard
And we played so hard
And we cried so hard

Life is in the air
It never really ends
It never quite begins
Just happens on the wind
Life is in the air
It never really ends
I'll remember you my friend

Life is in the air
It never really ends
It never quite begins
Just happens on the wind
Life is in the air
It never really ends
It never really ends
I'll remember you my friend

You told me a story
One that I'll never forget
And the words will live on
Now you're gone

And my generation
We'll take all the love and the pain and the mess
And we'll live it again
And again

And we'll work so hard
And we'll try so hard
And we'll laugh so hard
And we'll cry so hard

'Cause life is in the air
It never really ends
It never quite begins
Just happens on the wind
Life is in the air
It never really ends
It never really ends
I'll remember you my friend

Life is in the air
It never really ends
It never quite begins
Just happens on the wind
Life is in the air
It never really ends
I'll remember you my friend

For the brothers
For the lovers
For the sisters
And the mothers
For the future
We never planned for
When you left us alone
On the dance floor

For the brothers
For the lovers
For the sisters
And the mothers
For the future
We never planned for
When you left us alone
On the dance floor

Life is in the air
It never really ends
It never quite begins
Just happens on the wind
Life is in the air
It never really ends
I'll remember you my friend

For the brothers
For the lovers
For the sisters
And the mothers
For the future
We never planned for
When you left us alone
