Look son, soon our ways will part
And I've gotta go
Time flies and we can't live forever
That's just part of the show

I want you to look at those pictures
...about the life I had
Time stood still in each of these moments
That I’ll never forget

On this first picture
You can see all my best friends
I’ve known them all of my life
What crazy nights we spent

The second picture
Shows the girl of my life
The beauty in that black dress is
Your mother and my wife

When I‘m gone and the world is moving on
Our polaroids will stay
Paying tribute to our life‘s days – reminding you of me

At picture number three
You finally come into play
Where one life started
Another one passed away

Wonder vs. Misery
Now our small family
The biggest gift your mum could give
Number four your birthday!

The biggest gift your mum could ever give me
You're the biggest gift your mum could ever give me

When I‘m gone and the world is moving on
Our polaroids will stay
Paying tribute to our life‘s days – reminding you of me

Son, this letter is my farewell
And when you read this I will be gone
All I want you to know is that I always loved you
Please have the strength to move on!
