I felt the car crash
It happened so fast
I thought that I would never catch my breath again
The dangling seat belts
The burning fuel smells
You were sayin' that the blood would stain your dress
And then...
I thought back to New Years night
The angry words, the awful fight
We suffer for our sins
I've suffered for my sins
You were so scared
That's the thing
I most remember
The way your hand felt
In mine
I wish I still...
I want you to know
What happened when I lost you
I wish you could feel
This aching that's replaced you
So here among these gathered few
With hardened hearts and empty pews
I pray that this will too pass and leave
That I could be a man of faith
In this quiet home that we both made
And tell our son and daughter I believe
In God
Oh oh the worst is
Those things we manage
Don't let yourself cry in front of the kids
And I'm so exhausted
That I think I've lost it
Six months ago I had it all
I thought back to New Years night
The angry words, the awful fight
We suffer for our sins
I've suffered for my sins
You were so scared
That's the thing
I most remember
The way your hand felt
In mine
I wish I still...
I want you to know
What happened when I lost you
I wish you could feel
This aching that's replaced you
So here among these gathered few
With hardened hearts and empty pews
I pray that this will too pass and leave
That I could be a man of faith
In this quiet home that we both made
And tell our son and daughter I believe
In God
Early in the morning
Sitting on the couch beside you
And Ike is staring
At your face
Ruby softly asks me
For blankets and cartoons
Why would that be
What plays in my head?
Reggie scratched the front door
And I told you to stay put
And you just kept singing
Less than Jake
But the moment that I returned
You sprang from our back room
Why would that be
What plays in my head?
If Your hand could take her
Just take me too
Just take me too
Just take me...
