lyrics

I can't walk through these streets anymore,
Many times I've been tempted to knock on your front door
(All I want is to hear your voice)
But you left for the sky
(You made your choice, you made your choice)
But you left for the sky
(You made your choice, you made your choice)

And the nights seem darker, believe me I know
But the cutting of skin or the breaking of bones
Will never fix you, will never heal you
This life is yours to live, this life is yours to cherish
This life is yours to cherish
You got to hold on or your day will never come around
How can any good come if you're six foot underground?
(If you're six foot underground)

And the nights seem darker, believe me I know
But the cutting of skin or the breaking of bones
Will never fix you, will never heal you
Will never fix you, will never heal you
Will never fix you, will never heal you
Will never fix you, will never heal you

I can't walk through these streets anymore,
Many times I've been tempted to knock on your front door
(All I want is to hear your voice)
But you left for the sky
(You made your choice, you made your choice)
But you left for the sky
(You made your choice, you made your choice)

What if I was there?
To cut the ropes, to hold you close
To tell you that life isn't as bad as we believe
Life isn't as sad as these days seem to be

What if I was there?
To tell you that I needed you, would that change a thing?
I didn't get to say I loved you, I didn't get to say I loved you
I will scream up above for you, I love you
Would that change a thing?
Would that change a thing?
Would that change a thing?
Would that change a thing?

Cause I've been searching everywhere for you
But I can't find even the slightest trace
But I can't find the slightest trace

I can't walk through these streets anymore,
Many times I've been tempted to knock on your front door
(All I want is to hear your voice)
But you left for the sky
(You made your choice, you made your choice)
But you left for the sky
(You made your choice, you made your choice)
