There was a time when I thought things were fine
But I hadn't met you then
I had only known living alone
But on that day was it fate or was it chance
That I stopped to watch you dance
For then I knew that I wanted you
Once we were paired for each other we cared
There was no-one else for me
So my only need to follow your lead
The best of times we were carefree life was good
Everything went as it should
Lived day to day in our own sweet way
There are stages in life
That we pass through sometimes unaware
There are stages in life
That we see but pretend they're not there
But give each stage special care
So now you're gone and I must carry on
Though again I'm without you
Those great times we passed they couldn't last
And now I know don't waste time but use it all
Final whistle is nature's call
I loved a friend to the very end
There are stages in life
That we pass through sometimes unaware
There are stages in life
That we see but pretend they're not there
But give each stage special care
For the final stage must always end this way
It's so sad but it's true
Don't forget all the other stages that you've been through
There are stages in life
That we pass through sometimes unaware
There are stages in life
That we see but pretend they're not there
But give each stage special care
There are stages in life
