[Intro]
Rare father-daughter teaching moment

[Verse 1]
How do I tell my child
Both inner and actual
Her feline friend was taken?

So how do I tell my child
That her friend was taken
By a selfish fool’s impatience?

[Chorus]
A delicate age for such an awful loss and lesson
Momentary, fleeting, and brief
A nature of all connection

[Verse 2]
Like our mother always said
"Life is short, screw the fear, screw the dread
It's so unnecessary"

Love them both
Love them now
Don't hold back 'causе
By and by, we'll all be dead and buriеd
(Dead and buried)
(Dead and buried)
(Dead and buried)
(Dead and buried)
[Chorus]
A delicate age for such an awful loss and lesson
Momentary, fleeting, and brief
A nature of all connection

Fear of pain, from loss has us avoiding bridges
Kindred connections
Such wasted time
Cross those bridges
Fear no bridges
Kindred spirits wait
Just beyond, cross those bridges
Fear no bridges
