lyrics
Last night I saw you again, with family and friends
I spent the whole time trying to make my amends
You said it’s ok, you said you’re alright
You said let’s make the best
I’m only here for tonight
We talked. We laughedtil we cried,
And oh how I tried, the guilt still ate me alive.
(But when I opened my eyes
The dream was realized)
Have you ever seen a grown man cry?
Have you ever seen your best friend die?
Have you ever fallen to your knees
reached for the sky and yelled
“why god why?”
And now it comes back,
I can't hold tears back,
I still choke when I speak your name.
cos you aint never coming,
No he aint never coming back..
(Still my mind trails back to that night
when the ambulance never came)
I can't control this, I didnt cause this
but I just can't let go...
I spent the whole time trying to make my amends
You said it’s ok, you said you’re alright
You said let’s make the best
I’m only here for tonight
We talked. We laughedtil we cried,
And oh how I tried, the guilt still ate me alive.
(But when I opened my eyes
The dream was realized)
Have you ever seen a grown man cry?
Have you ever seen your best friend die?
Have you ever fallen to your knees
reached for the sky and yelled
“why god why?”
And now it comes back,
I can't hold tears back,
I still choke when I speak your name.
cos you aint never coming,
No he aint never coming back..
(Still my mind trails back to that night
when the ambulance never came)
I can't control this, I didnt cause this
but I just can't let go...
