You said you were leaving
get ready for your byes
I said I can't
I’m afraid I’ll cry
you said it is OK to cry
it is OK to moan
it is OK to weep
and to take a harsh tone
so please cry
the hurt you need to release
and maybe just maybe
your crying will help you come to peace
god has used me
used me all he can
the world has taken
taken all I can stand
god has a greater
greater plan for you
and I’ll be in heaven
helping you all the way through
and then you paused
and wrapped your arms around me
I laid my head on you shoulder
and wept ever so loudly
I said please don't leave me
I can't make it on earth alone
you called me crazy
and said I’m never alone
you'll have someone even after I’m gone
you'll have my family and yours too
you'll have our friends who know what you’re going through.
He left me that day
alone I stood holding his hand
praying for him to stay all long as he can
I know he is at peace now.
Because he told me just before he died
heaven is beautiful
God didn't lie.
