Roll of the Dice
Life's Dice: Navigating Love, Loss, and Legacy
Lyrics
From my very first memory
Reflecting on the earliest memories and experiences.
I could feel the love you had for me
Feeling the love directed towards the speaker from the beginning.
The cornerstone of our family
Highlighting the importance of family as the foundation.
How did I get so lucky
Expressing gratitude for the luck in having such a loving family.
Your very presense made me happy
The joy and contentment brought by the presence of a loved one.
I never feared being lonely
A sense of security and lack of fear about loneliness.
The cornerstone of our family
Reiterating the family's significance as a cornerstone.
How did we get so lucky
Expressing continued gratitude for the family's good fortune.
I wish I knew what was coming
Expressing a desire to know about future events.
The winds of change would affect our course
Acknowledging the inevitability of change and its impact.
Our world would never be the same
Emphasizing a significant and irreversible shift in their world.
I want to believe you would have liked
Expressing a desire for the departed to appreciate a specific song.
This song for you
Highlighting a tribute through a song for the departed.
Your body left broken but your soul remains
Acknowledging the physical absence but spiritual presence of the departed.
I promise I'll make you proud some day
Promising to achieve something commendable to honor the departed.
A mighty champion for all to emulate
Desiring to become a powerful and positive influence like the departed.
I trust you knew the impact that you'd made
Believing the departed was aware of the impact they had on others.
I miss you
Expressing a deep sense of longing for the departed.
Take it from me that life's not fair
Commenting on life's unfairness and unpredictability.
What you get is a roll of the dice
Metaphorically referring to life as a game of chance.
To and fro and pendulum throws
Describing the uncertainty and unpredictability of life's course.
Where it stops, no one knows
Expressing the randomness of life's outcomes.
I wanna make you proud
Repetition of the desire to make the departed proud.
I wanna make you proud
-I wanna make you proud
-I will make you proud
A firm commitment to making the departed proud.
