I want to stand up a rock and watch the river flow,
With the blue sky up above me and the valley down below
(Walk down to )
I want to hold my head up high and listen to the wind
'Cause when its gone it won't be back again
I want to sing the kind of songs my daddy sang to me
I want to be the kind of man he wanted me to be
(Walk down to )
He said you only get one chance you better do the best you can
'Cause when its gone it won't be back again
I want to wear my Sunday coat and hold your hand in mine
And hear you say you love me until the end of time
(Walk down to )
I want to find forevery in every moment that we spend
'Cause when it's gone it won't be back again
Instrument Break
I want to wear my Sunday coat and hold your hand in mine
And hear you say you love me, until the end of time
NOTE: (There is a key change, but I don't change keys)
I want to stand upon a rock, like I did when I was young
And hold you close beside me, and watch our children run
(Walk down to )
'Cause you only get one chance to listen to the wind
'Cause when its gone it won't be back again
(Walk down to )
We only get one chance to listen to the wind
'Cause when its gone it won't be back again
Yeah, when its gone it won't be back again
