You Were Brave.

Sunlight thru the window on your cheek
How you spoke to me
Everyday I ask Him why you had leave
And why it wasn't me
But there are things that you and I can't understand
Do you understand?

Dreaming you are sleeping next to me
I awake to these cold cold sheets
I wonder if I'll ever love again
If this heart will mend
But there are things that you and I can't understand
I don't understand


I remember when you held my hand
You said we would meet again
You were brave when I could not be
It was you but it should've been me
It was you but I wish it were me too
