Now You're Gone
Your eyes were bright as you held my hand.
The word "goodbye" was the last that we said.
I never saw it coming,
But now you're gone.
When I'm alone I can still hear your laugh.
You were so happy, please come back.
I never knew what I had,
But now you're gone.
Pinch me so I'll wake up from this bad dream.
Save me before I drown in this sea.
I can't take this pain anymore.
I'd give anything to see you walk through that door.
I saw you smile and I watched you grow.
What I'd give for you to live and learn the things you didn't know.
I never knew I could feel this alone,
But now you're gone.
Pinch me so I'll wake up from this bad dream.
Save me before I drown in this sea.
I can't take this pain anymore.
I'd give anything to see you walk through that door.
Now I'm crying cause you never had a choice.
And I'm trying to remember your voice.
Now I talk to you as I sit on your bed.
And I go through all the clothes you'll never wear again.
Pinch me so I'll wake up from this bad dream.
Save me before I drown in this sea.
Could I have been there to catch your fall?
Or hold your hand and be with you through it all?
