Early Departure Lyrics

I stood in the rain for countless hours

Trying to cleanse my tainted skin

I close my eyes and I see you there, trying not to grin

It feels like years since I last held you

Or when I heard that familiar laugh

It brings me so much pain knowing, you'll never come back

You were taken too early from me

I guess that God had a plan for you

Sometimes I wish he took me instead

'Cause I can't go on without you here

I think of you every single night

I get on my knees and pray for you

It's unfair that He took you from me

'Cause I can't go on without you here

I drove by our house to reminisce

To look at the place that you called home

I couldn't stop the tears from falling down, on the plants we used to own

I used to dream of the kids we'd have

Of the family that you wanted with me

It brings me so much pain we can never have, things we hoped to be

You were taken too early from me

I guess that God had a plan for you

Sometimes I wish he took me instead

'Cause I can't go on without you here

I think of you every single night

I get on my knees and pray for you

It's unfair that He took you from me

'Cause I can't go on without you here

You were taken too early from me

I guess that God had a plan for you

Sometimes I wish he took me instead

'Cause I can't go on without you here

I think of you every single night

I get on my knees and pray for you

It's unfair that He took you from me

'Cause I can't go on without you here
