The Water


My heart is broken

From all the tears not spoken

From the time that feels stolen

And from love not awoken

If I could give you more time I would

I'd give you the world if I could

Just to know that you are good

Then it would be understood

That your love was strong

And you healed what was wrong

You danced to a different song

And it seems now you don't belong

But I will love every second I see you

If it's the last thing I do

To God my prayers are sent to

That he will continue to guide you

Momma you will always be my fighter

With each step you will feel lighter

As the silver strings pull tighter

I will see you again in the water
