Stephen Bard - Long Battle (With The Inevitable) Lyrics

Joe's dad, God rest him, was 76
Which today I've been told is still pretty young
Three good sons and a beautiful wife
Apparently led a phenomenal life
With lots of trips taken and songs to be sung
His last few years were a sadder kind of song
Slipping away
Fighting a long battle with the inevitable
The inevitable
My dad, God bless him is still here as of now
He lives in a memory care facility
Two good sons and two wonderful wives
Apparently had him two pretty good lives
These days he barely remembers me
It's a difficult thing and you've got to be strong
Every day we're fighting a long battle with the inevitable
The inevitable
The inevitable
The inevitable
Trying my best to take care of myself
And the others around me who matter the most
Two good girls and a beautiful wife
Apparently I've been enjoying my life
With lots of trips taken and songs to be sung
Making the most out of it
It's never wrong
All the way Jay
Fighting a long battle with the inevitable
All the way Jay
Fighting a long battle with the inevitable
All the way Jay
Fighting a long battle with the inevitable
The inevitable
Battle with the inevitable
Battle with the inevitable
Battle with the inevitable
Battle with the inevitable
