That used to be me up there in his arms
now I watch from a distance as I'm replaced in his...
I can't say I'm sorry
you got what you gave...
You didn't have to say the words
I saw them in your eyes...
There's a boy on the cornerof my street
who goes to my school...
I laid awake for hours
awaiting my goodnight hug...
I hate to lie
But I lied again today...
I watched you walk away when I was ten
like you didn't even care at all...
I'm lost here,
without you to hold me close...
They say i look like him,
maybe i just can't see it...
Presents lined up neatly,
all wrapped with care...
The preacher said you were in a better place,
but where could be better than here...
I got his smile,
So I'm told...
