Empathy

So many times I've heard you cry
i can do nothing but stand by your side
so many times I've tried to help
never knowing how you really felt

just once, I'd like to comfort you
i want to experience it too
just once, I'd like to feel the same
ain't being there for you makes me go insane

sometimes, I wish I was there
regret is more than I can bare
sometimes, i wish it was me instead
thoughts of you in my head

I'm just hopen
the gates of heaven are still open
cause life will get better
soon we'll be together
