we carried you there,
so unprepared,
so unprepared to be grieving.
don't tarry with care,
take to the air,
so unaware you'd be leaving.

and now, i'm here to say,
i shall never be right again.
how can i pray
he'll return what he's taken away?

on another day,
any other day,
we'd open our eyes.
you'd be alive.

you would still be alive.
you would still be alive.
you would still be alive.
you would still be alive.
