Текст песни Do You Ever? - Avion Blackman

She is a precious little child, two pig tails and a toothless smile
A world of possibilities, imagination running wild
It is the worst day of the year, her mother gives her an embrace
With eyes welled up in tears, she says "daddy's gone to a better place"

Lying in bed with tears in her eyes
Afraid of the dark, so she turns to the light

Do you ever think what life is worth?
Where will you go when you leave the earth?
Do you ever think what life is worth?
Where will you go when you leave the earth?

Now she's just turned sweet sixteen, reading fashion magazines
Her innocence is gone, and she's on the party scene
Hangin' out on Friday night, "can I bum another light?"
Everything just feels so right, until her friend commits suicide

Lying in bed with tears in her eyes
Afraid of the dark, so she turns to the light

Do you ever think what life is worth?
Where will you go when you leave the earth?
Do you ever think what life is worth?
Where will you go when you leave the earth?

She was an ordinary girl, with a pocket full of dreams
Now she's in an empty life, and nothing's as it seems
The only one that brings her joy, is her husband of thirty years
Until he has a stroke and dies, now her joy has disappeared.

Lying in bed with tears in her eyes
Afraid of the dark, so she turns to the light

Do you ever think what life is worth?
Where will you go when you leave the earth?
Do you ever think what life is worth?
Where will you go when you leave the earth?

Now she's in a nursing home, no one visits any more
Her whole life is behind her, and nothing is before
The only companion left, is her television set
She hears the pastor's voice on Sunday, then breathes her last breath

Lying in bed, with tears in her eyes
Afraid of the dark, so she moves towards the light.

Do you ever think what life is worth?
Where will you go when you leave the earth?
Do you ever think what life is worth?
Where will you go when you leave the earth?

Do you hear?, hear His voice?, calling you to the light
Can you hear?, hear His voice?, calling you to the light
