Watched his funeral on CNN the other day| And I didn't even know the man| As I held my cup of coffee I couldn't look away| People must have really loved him| Story after story they smiled through the tears| And it really got me thinking | Of that occasion just for me | I know I'll never get to see||Chorus: What are they gonna say| Was I a good friend| Did I make people laugh | Did I take time to listen| When I cross that river | Will they say well done| He drank every drop of this life and then some| When my time on earth comes down to that one day| What are they gonna say||Verse: I started up my car and headed off to work| And I jumped into the race| Another one of God's creations moving through the world| Yeah just trying to find his way| But I felt a little different and I had a crazy thought| What if I could be there | Watching from the pews | When my time is through|| (Repeat Chorus)||Bridge: Could I laugh a little harder| Could I look a little deeper| Could I love a little stronger|| (Repeat ½ Chorus)|
