[00:01.43]How many angels are there places for
[00:04.80]
[00:06.63]Should I be scared that heaven doesn't want anymore
[00:11.30]
[00:12.82]I heard the news about his mom
[00:15.00]
[00:16.43]Never to mend
[00:18.40]
[00:20.56]And I can't lift the sadness of his heart
[00:23.58]
[00:26.34]What do I say that won't help him fall apart
[00:30.97]Oh why is life so beautiful that it must end
[00:37.82]
[00:40.01]For the rest of his days he'll never be
[00:43.60]
[00:45.64]Far from the cruelest truth
[00:48.41]Of grief's companion constancy and
[00:51.13]
[00:51.67]I wanna hold him but I'm half a world away
[00:56.30]Witness only to the solitude of loss
[00:59.98]
[01:01.89]And I'm helpless as he hangs his mother's 'cross
[01:05.67]
[01:09.02]As he hangs his mother's 'cross
[01:11.03]
[01:17.08]We have the platitudes
[01:18.97]The insufficiency of words
[01:20.68]
[01:21.86]Can I cut out my heart
[01:23.59]
[01:24.73]And feed it to you now
[01:26.99]Can I take any part of your pain
[01:30.85]
[01:31.85]My friend
[01:33.88]
[01:36.09]You'll never be the same
[01:37.53]
[01:38.23]Life's so beautiful has changed
[01:40.99]No you'll never be the same again
[01:45.32]
[01:46.97]For the rest of his days he'll never be
[01:50.27]
[01:52.65]Far from the cruelest truth
[01:54.91]
[01:55.60]Of grief's companion constancy and
[01:57.99]
[01:58.67]I wanna hold him but I'm half a world away
[02:02.83]
[02:03.66]Witness only to the solitude of loss
[02:06.81]
[02:09.01]And I'm helpless as he hangs his mother's 'cross
[02:12.79]
[02:15.78]Helpless as he hangs his mother's 'cross
[02:18.56]
[02:22.78]Fly with me and look down from the clouds
[02:27.75]
[02:29.37]What a place to leave
[02:31.03]Can you see it clearer now
[02:33.41]
[02:34.21]When the sun rises let's be up to meet the waves
[02:40.67]
[02:43.00]There's no more lazy days
[02:44.93]'Cause they've all been washed away
[02:47.23]
[02:47.74]And this flesh no surprise won't survive
[02:52.87]
[02:53.39]For the rest of his days he'll never be
[02:58.26]
[02:59.57]Far from the cruelest truth
[03:02.27]Of grief's companion constancy and
[03:05.05]
[03:05.69]I wanna hold him but I'm half a world away
[03:09.95]Witness only to the solitude of loss
[03:14.02]
[03:15.71]And I'm helpless as he hangs his mother's cross
[03:19.92]
[03:22.78]As he hangs his mother's cross
[03:25.27]
[03:28.22]As he hangs his mother's cross
[03:31.29]
[03:35.07]Her memory in memoriam
[03:39.50]
[03:40.10]Temporary leaves
[03:42.90]
[03:45.85]Drifting from life's tree
[03:47.72]Only forever we'll be here eternally
[03:52.88]
[03:53.58]Only forever we'll be here eternally
[03:58.57]Her memory in memoriam
[04:01.85]
[04:02.50]Temporary leaves
[04:04.62]
[04:08.06]Drifting from life's tree
[04:10.01]Only forever we'll be here eternally
[04:15.34]
[04:15.86]Only forever we'll be here eternally
