Take better care
Of yourself, my friend
For you never know
When it will all come to an end

‘Cause only time will tell
When death shall rain its spell
So take better care
Of yourself, my friend

‘Cause you are a single grain
A mere molecule
Mistaken for a king
You’re only a simple fool

I will provide you
With a reason to believe
I will not desert you
In your time of need

And so sudden the winds change
And so sudden you lose your faith

I will provide you
With a reason to believe

‘Cause you are a single grain
A mere molecule
Mistaken for a king
You’re only a simple fool

So take better care
Of yourself, my friend
Take better care
Of yourself, my friend
