Leave Nothing On The Table

Tonight I watched my best man
Writhing in a hospital bed
They couldn’t get the morphine in fast enough
I wish I was here in his stead.

Watching my sweet brother die
Saying goodbye so slowly, so long
All I can say to my friends
Is cherish the time lest it’s gone.

Hold on to this minute my friend
It might be the last one you know
Hold on to this minute my friend
You might be the last one to go.

Make love to your wife while you can
Spend time with your loved ones, and grow
Hold on to this minute my friend
It might be the last one you know.

Leave nothing on the table
Leave nothing more to say
Leave nothing on the table
Leave no more cards to play
