It's a nice day for a blue suit
I'm standing in the rain
I put it on this morning
To see you once again
It wasn't necessary
You'd love me just the same
But i wanted to see you this way
The last few years were hard now
But you've made it through
I wished the lord would take you home
I'm sad that wish came true
I hear you're at peace now
It's what i want from you
So i'll see you sometime
Ashes to ashes we all turn to dust
Somewhere there's a heaven
Where nothing will rust
Some of us go early
Some stay long
This life's but a moment
It's here and then it's gone
It's a nice day for a black suit
Still standing in the rain
I put it on this morning
On my wedding day
I wish that you could be here
I wonder what you'd say
"how quickly they grow up!"
We're gonna throw those roses in the air
And dance the night away
We'll run out to that waiting car and quickly drive away
Into a future, one where we'll say
"how great to be alive!"
Now ashes to ashes we all turn to dust
Somewhere there's a heaven
Where nothing will rust
Some of us go early
Some stay long
This life's but a moment
It's here and then it's gone
We celebrate the good and the bad times
