Just One Life

Brian May

Lyrics

I did not know you, our lives never touched

'Til the day they gathered, to bid you farewell

And they painted your picture and as I looked around

I felt I saw you in the words and the sound

Your talent came flowing, through the stories they tell

And through the faces of those who loved you so well

Your life gave them a treasure, a piece of themselves

Something they carry, and still serves them well

Just one life, just one life, just one life

That is born, and is, and is gone, just one life

And I'm so glad to know you, as I know you now

Perhaps inside you, you were messed up like me

But to them you were whole and strong and a friend in their need

And what you left behind you and what swept over me

Says that your life's work rolls on and on, a piece of eternity

Just one life, just one life, just one life

That is born, and is, and is gone, just one life

Did you ever have a chance to find out

What life is all about

I did not know you, our lives never touched

'Til the day we gathered, to say our farewell
