  • Thirty hour drive from home
    Think I'd feel so alone, that couldn't be less true
    Family traveling by my side
    Lifeline friends we can't deny
    See the world with you

    [Chorus:]
    Here today, gone tomorrow
    We're saying our goodbyes
    Drive away from the past
    Don't be sad, don't feel sorrow
    The memories in our hearts, I won't forget

    An icy road with no remorse
    A metal box drifting off course is taking everything
    I can't believe we lost you
    I can't feel any worse now
    This must be a dream
    When will someone wake me?

    [Chorus]

    I won't forget
    (It's in our hearts, it's in our hearts)
    I won't forget

    All my life, I've never felt so strong as when we're all together
    All my days, I've never felt so powerless when you were taken away
    There's no one in this world with so much love and so much passion
    We'll say goodbye, but we won't forget the liberty and fortitude

    [Chorus]

    I won't forget
    (It's in our hearts, it's in our hearts)
    I won't forget
    (It's in our hearts, it's in our hearts)
    I won't forget
    (It's in our hearts, it's in our hearts)
    I won't forget Writer/s: Joshua Bradford, Neil Boshart, Paul Koehler, Shane Told, William Hamilton
