I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday
I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday. I will

I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday
I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday. Somehow, Some way
I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday


There I lied, heavy chested in the downpour,
staring at the clouds with my mouth open knowing well

I used to drown in every memory falling down of the best friend found,
I ever threw around the house (how predictable)
Out here with the dreams feel invincible,

Just me and my obsessive need to feel her breathing again
I still set a place for you every night,
My fingers have never been crossed this tight, she will come back alright


I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday, I swear
I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday


The doctors waived me in from harvest that morning,
with a sad look saying all those impossible words

There is nothing I could do to help her,
"I'm sorry Ira, but she's as done as they get, now a paler ghost."
Called her soldier 'till the seizures got too deep

and held her while she traded up fighting for some needed sleep
Beautiful treasure in my world, worth believing it is dry
Black and white rainbows poorly drawn since she died


I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday
I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday. somehow, someway

I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday
I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday


I sang our song by the cross in the front lawn,
every morning since our Barbara left me for that greater place
It's hard to carry this land with broken pride,

I can't even lift my virtue up to eat lest I leave her side
What if she wakes up and I can't hear her cries?
I need to be right here if cinderella tries,

Open the skies with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday.

I'll open the sky with my own two hands and take her back from you again someday

I'll open the sky with my own two pair and steal her back because it was never fair, I swear.

They spent their nights crying endlessly,

holding hands in her memory,
Whispering the words, but only if what if.
A dawn unto their day,

A daughter whisked away, loved by her family,
amounts to tears in which the silence drifts.
Never had the chance to say goodbye,

yet someday soon I know we'll meet again.
Beauty captured in the hearts of many people on the way from me to yours,
including mine my friend.


Caught a glimpse of her and every falling star that crashed,
made a wish for her presence on every moon it passed.

Caught a glimpse of her and every falling star that crashed,
made a wish for her presence on every moon it passed.
Caught a glimpse of her and every falling star that crashed,

made a wish for her presence on every moon it passed.
Caught a glimpse of her and every falling star that crashed,
made a wish for her presence on every moon it passed.


Mom and Dad hurt the deepest from the devastating news,
all they wanted was one more chance to say "I love you."

Thinking of the little girl they used to kiss, hold, and hug,
and if they only had the power, what they'd undo.
Come to the understanding that she's no longer coming home,

left her bedroom walls the same and her belonging all alone,
Every morning her mother still goes to the ba!@&(t where her daughter used to sleep, and cries.
Just to feel the spirit of her smile and dream about the times as a child when she used to stare into her eyes.


Caught a glimpse of her and every falling star that crashed,
made a wish for her presence on every moon it passed.

Caught a glimpse of her and every falling star that crashed,
made a wish for her presence on every moon it passed.
Caught a glimpse of her and every falling star that passed,
and eternally her memory will forever last.
Caught a glimpse of her and every falling star that passed,

eternally her memories forever will last.
Forever.
