Here Today - Gone Tomorrow

You're here today,
And gone tomorrow,
Just fading memories,
And not much sorrow,
Some joys, some tears,
A bit of love and lust,
An interval of life,
A trip from dust to dust,
From childhood to senility,
A tragic-comic play
About the nature of futility,
You're here today,
And gone tomorrow,
Just fading memories,
And passing sorrow...
