Words and music by Erik Walters
lyrics
They called me from the highway
Said your time was coming soon
I drove on 'till the morning
To say my last goodbye to you
Out of all of life's hard lessons
Only one of them reigns true
You taught me how to not be you
Your heart gave up at midnight
In a cool September rain
With the nurses there beside you
You left quiet with no pain
But in life you were a farmer
And pain is what you grew
You taught me how to not be you
But no one should ever die alone
No one should ever die alone
You always had respect for those
Who talked big and fought back
Never shed a tear over Mama's heart attack
And you always chose the bottle
Over what a dad should do
But you taught me how
No one should ever die alone
No one should ever die alone
Lying there, a soul without a home
Love was something that you never got to know
Said your time was coming soon
I drove on 'till the morning
To say my last goodbye to you
Out of all of life's hard lessons
Only one of them reigns true
You taught me how to not be you
Your heart gave up at midnight
In a cool September rain
With the nurses there beside you
You left quiet with no pain
But in life you were a farmer
And pain is what you grew
You taught me how to not be you
But no one should ever die alone
No one should ever die alone
You always had respect for those
Who talked big and fought back
Never shed a tear over Mama's heart attack
And you always chose the bottle
Over what a dad should do
But you taught me how
No one should ever die alone
No one should ever die alone
Lying there, a soul without a home
Love was something that you never got to know
