1) A friend comes to the edge of the dark
She’s prepared to die though she wants so much to live
She stands up tall and holds on to the spark
That may be the last and best thing she can give
Chorus
Roll the bones ‘cause that’s how life is
Roll the bones just to see what they say
Roll the bones, so much is hidden
Nobody knows the way
Bridge
Eyes open, awake in the shadows
Hearts open to carry the light
With courage to laugh and the courage to cry
And arms to hold us through the night
Roll the bones (3x)
2) She put her house in order and told her kids
With those close to her heart she had to cry
We talked about all the hard things she did
The hardest was to have to say goodbye
Chorus
Bridge
