you’re gone
Friday, April 3rd, 2009 I said “hello, I think I’m broken”
And though I was only jokin’
It took me by surprise when you agreed.
I was tryin’ to be clever,
For the life of me I never
Would have guessed how far the simple truth would lead.
You knew all my lines
You knew all my tricks
You knew how to heal that pain
No medicine can fix.
And I bless the day I met you,
And I thank god that he let you
Lay beside me for a moment that lives on.
And the good news is I’m better
For the time we spent together,
And the bad news is you’re gone.
Lookin’ back, it’s still surprisin’.
I was sinking, you were rising.
With a look you caught me in mid-air.
Now I know god has his reasons
But sometimes it’s hard to see them
When I awake and find that you’re not there.
You found hope in hopeless
Your made crazy sane
You became the missing link
That helped me break my chains.
And I bless the day I met you,
And I thank god that he let you
Lay beside me for a moment that lives on.
And the good news is I’m better
For the time we spent together,
And the bad news is you’re gone.
The bad news is you’re gone.
You’re gone.
You’re gone.
