|
Today I walked down our old street |
|
Past the diner where we'd meet |
|
Now I dine alone in our old seats |
|
The cold wind blows right through my bones |
|
And I feel like I'm getting old |
|
But I wish I was getting old with you |
|
I held your hand while we took shelter from the rain |
|
She laughed as we picked out our children's names |
|
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away |
|
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, |
|
I kneel and pray |
|
Her clothes hang in the closet still |
|
The phone sits on the windowsill |
|
And every time it rings it gives me chills |
|
My heart just stopped when I was told |
|
Doctor, doctor, on the phone |
|
Said my love was never coming home |
|
I hold your casket gently walking to the grave |
|
Dark clouds eclipse the sun won't shine again |
|
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away |
|
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, |
|
I kneel and pray |
|
They gave her one more day |
|
To say the words I couldn't say |
|
I'm crying in pain, crying in pain |
|
And I'm not looking for answers |
|
No, I'm not looking for answers |
|
But dear God, why did you choose her? |
|
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away |
|
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, |
|
I kneel and pray |
|
They gave her one more day |
|
To say the words I couldn't say |
|
I'm crying in pain (crying in pain) |
|
Crying in pain |
|
Our love will remain |
|
I'm crying in pain |
