Heaven stole everything I know
Only to claim one other soul
Headed down on a lonely road
I trace my footsteps back to your home
I pray to trade a life
I saw the fear in your mother's eyes
I can never let the day go by
I found the pieces tried to fix it

They wrote your name on a headstone
I saw the fires make dust from bone
Now in the night when I dream alone
Can you hear me when I call
Too tired to run from it
When you drew your final breath
I knew then that my heart was set
I'd wait for my time heaven take me

I traded all I was for less and I chose to forget the rest
And in memory we bow our heads and condemn me to my end
I saw love in their tears and I had to accept your years
Were at an end when I met you here

I traded all I was for less and I chose to forget the rest
And in memory we bow our heads and condemn me to my end
I saw love in their tears and I had to accept your years
Were at an end when I met you here
I'm at my end when I met you here
