JUst to See You Again
You were one breath away
From deciding to stay
And I wish with all that I have
You could have held on
Did you know I was but one
Who loved you and who would have come
Had we but known you were sinking into despair
And I don’t want to cry every time
That I hear you name
And I don’t want to die even though
I know living has changed
And I won’t loosen my grip
On the hope you’re in Heaven
And I’d do anything that I could
Just to see you again
In one second you crossed
From living to life being lost
And the pain in the wake of your choice
Is so hard to bear
To honor our love I will fight
Each day to do what is right
And focus on Heaven
I picture you peacefully there
And I don’t want to cry every time
That I hear you name
And I don’t want to die even though I know living has changed
And I won’t loosen my grip
On the hope you’re in Heaven
And I’d do anything that I could
Just to see you again
Do you know
I’m thinking about you?
Do you try sending me signs?
I feel that the fog of the pain is so thick
That somehow it’s blinded my eyes
And I don’t want to cry every time
That I hear you name
And I don’t want to die even though
I know living has changed
And I won’t loosen my grip
On the hope you’re in Heaven
And I’d do anything that I could
Just to see you again
And I’d do anything that I could
Just to see you again
"This song came to me in mere moments. This is how it feels to lose someone you love to suicide and to wish they could have known how very much they were loved."
