When we were younger, your mother insisted
That we should be married, I was resistant
The torch that I carried required both hands
So I let go of yours, you fell into heartbreak
Your mother made other plans
Fast forward now to the beat of the battle
The demons are screaming in both of my ears
And I need to find meaning, here on this saddle
I think that I'm fighting for you but I can't be clear
I hope you gave so much to me that when you've gone
I can never be whole again
I pray you gave so much to me that when you've gone
I will never be whole again
Even though now it is crushing my heart
I believe in the reasons that took us apart
And if there could be holes where a person had been
I would wear this one proudly, without coverin'
Tell them you were here
When we are grown and have kids of our own
Maybe my daughter will fall for your son
And the pencil of destiny draw us together
And two will be one
We could be
Neighbors
I hope you gave so much to me that when you've gone
I can never be whole again
I pray you gave so much to me that when you've gone
I will never be whole again
I will never be whole again
And I pray
May I never be whole
Amen
