I Pray

I know it's wrong to want you back here
When you're in a better place
But I can't help wanting to hear your laugh
Feel your touch and see your face

I know it's wrong to act like I"m angry at you
For leaving me behind
I never mean it, and all I want
is to stop and press rewind

Maybe if I had seen it coming
I would've said the things I want to say
But when your day came closer and closer
All I could do was pray

Instead of telling you that I love you
I prayed and asked God not to take you from me
Instead of telling you that I'll miss you
I'm busy crying, and so I don't see

That death will always come
To who and when, we'll never know
So all we can do is leave it be
And realise when it's time to let go

So now I'm telling you "I love and miss you"
And I pray that you can hear
Although I know you're happy up there
I can't promise I won't shed a tear

I'll cry because I miss you
I'll cry because you're okay
I'll cry because I love you
And for you I'll always pray
