i took your hand
you slipped away from me
i understand

why you have to leave

I'm not alone i try

holding on for life
you can not hear my cries no more, no more


heaven took you far away from me
left me empty and alone
heaven took you far away from me

too far away for me to go

it's getting late

I'm right here next to you
I'm glad i stayed
to see the last of you


I'm not alone i try
holding on for life

you can not hear my cries no more, no more

heaven took you far away from me

left me empty and alone
heaven took you far away from me
too far away for me to go


the last breath is fading from your lips now
the warmth is leaving from your hands

you're slipping further away
slipping away
slipping far away


heaven took you far away from me
left me empty and alone

heaven took you far away from me
too far away for me to go
(too far away for me to go)


heaven took you far away from me
left me empty and alone

heaven took you far away from me
too far away for me to go


i took your hand
you slipped away
