Lyrics

[00:05.64] .
[00:13.95] Whole town showed up
[00:17.08] Gymnasium filled
[00:20.70] Floor was wet
[00:23.89] From all the tears spilled
[00:26.83] And the preacher man said
[00:29.70] We're all gathered today
[00:33.45] And I'll never forget
[00:36.82] What he had to say
[00:38.77] .
[00:39.21] It's always too soon
[00:42.51] It's always too fast
[00:45.76] There'll never come a day
[00:48.64] That you don't want 'em back
[00:52.32] It ain't about the numbers
[00:55.70] Chiseled in concrete
[00:58.83] It's how they lived their lives
[01:02.13] In the dash between
[01:05.45] In the dash between
[01:07.59] .
[01:12.84] He was a steelworker's son
[01:16.28] Homecoming king
[01:19.40] He trained day and night
[01:22.55] For that championship ring
[01:25.89] He found him a girl
[01:29.34] Made her his queen
[01:32.59] And he fought for his country
[01:35.78] And he gave it everything
[01:37.97] .
[01:38.53] It's always too soon
[01:41.65] It's always too fast
[01:44.91] There'll never come a day
[01:48.09] That you don't want 'em back
[01:51.53] It ain't about the numbers
[01:54.92] Chiseled in concrete
[01:58.11] It's how they lived their lives
[02:01.36] In the dash between
[02:04.61] In the dash between
[02:06.48] .
[02:06.73] Their first breath and their last
[02:08.86] Marks all the memories of the past
[02:12.05] That little black line defines a legacy
[02:16.85] .
[02:24.36] It's always too soon
[02:27.61] It's always too fast
[02:30.92] They're always too young
[02:34.24] It's always so sad
[02:37.61] It ain't about the numbers
[02:40.73] Chiseled in concrete
[02:44.05] It's how they lived their lives
[02:46.61] In the dash between
[02:50.67] In the dash between
[02:57.29] In the dash between
[03:00.42] .
