They'll never replace you And ain't it a shame 'Cause the world's so much poorer without you Without you We'll never forget you You're more than a name That we sewed on the quilt we laid On the grass, 87 When we fought so hard And we danced so hard And we played so hard And we cried so hard Life is in the air It never really ends It never quite begins Just happens on the wind Life is in the air It never really ends I'll remember you my friend Life is in the air It never really ends It never quite begins Just happens on the wind Life is in the air It never really ends It never really ends I'll remember you my friend You told me a story One that I'll never forget And the words will live on Now you're gone And my generation We'll take all the love and the pain and the mess And we'll live it again And again And we'll work so hard And we'll try so hard And we'll laugh so hard And we'll cry so hard 'Cause life is in the air It never really ends It never quite begins Just happens on the wind Life is in the air It never really ends It never really ends I'll remember you my friend Life is in the air It never really ends It never quite begins Just happens on the wind Life is in the air It never really ends I'll remember you my friend For the brothers For the lovers For the sisters And the mothers For the future We never planned for When you left us alone On the dance floor For the brothers For the lovers For the sisters And the mothers For the future We never planned for When you left us alone On the dance floor Life is in the air It never really ends It never quite begins Just happens on the wind Life is in the air It never really ends I'll remember you my friend For the brothers For the lovers For the sisters And the mothers For the future We never planned for When you left us alone
