When The Light Turns Red The Letter From Above
You weren't just my best friend
you were there until the very end
and i never got to say goodbye
I never got to watch you close your eyes
one last time
you were just ten years old
when you first got told to go
you told me to stay by your side all night
i just told you that everything was, was alright and
I look up at the skies so far
and I start to wonder where you are
my sould feels empty again
i need that one touch of my best friend
bring him back one more day
as i pray to God won't you listen to waht I say
bring him back one more day
as I yell to God
Then I fall to the ground
I dont hear one familiar sound
And the tears I start to taste
I guess we gotta meet in that other place.
I'm just a boy
trying so hard to be a man
and I'm doing everything I can
Does life start to seem fair
watching your best friend loose all his hair?
And I go to your house late at night and I feel
your head full of lies
I'll bet the school that you'll never go
and the girls that you'll never know
and if your looking down right now,
I hope your singing along
Cause I wrote you this song oh
look up at skies so far and
I start to wonder where you are oh
my soul feels empty again
I need the one touch of my best friend
Bring him back one more day
as I pray to God,
won't you listen to what I say
Bring him back one more day
as I yell to God
Then I fall to the ground
and I don't hear one familiar sound
and the tears I start to taste
Guess we gotta meet in that other place
Watch to heaven just to wave and see oh
You'll say there's part up there for me
It'll be like it used to be
I'll be outside playing baseball
like none of this happened at all
This is my letter above to
let you know I'm thinking of you
I'll look up at the skies so far oh
and I start to wonder where you are oh
my soul feel empty again
i need the one touch of my best friend
Bring him back one more day
as I pray to God,
won't you listen to what I say
Bring him back one more day
as I yell to God
Then I fall to the ground
and I don't hear one familiar sound
and the tears I start to taste
Guess we gotta meet in that other place
in that other place.
