You get close to people
Who you care about
You try to calm them
When they shout
They notice you
You notice them too
When they are not there
You wonder and care
They went on holiday in Devon
They didn`t come back
They`ve gone to heaven
And that is that
You don`t stop caring
When they`re dead
You hear the phone ring
As you cry in your bed
But life goes on
For you
There`ll be others
Only one or two
Why do you care
If you know they`ll leave
In a life of dare
No- one knows when you grieve
