lyrics

I sat by your bedside
And the hum of the room
Echoed machines
And lives gone too soon
And I watched you sleeping
And I said a prayer
To the God we believe in
Who forgot you were there

I sat by your bedside
And it all seemed so dumb
People acting so busy
And trying to be young
And though you didn’t hear me
I still had to say,
“I feel so selfish
For moving away”

And I’d sacrifice my youth
To breathe life back into you

I sat by your bedside
And pulled up a tune
From an earlier era
And an earlier you
And I watched you come alive
Like a light had come on
And though talking was painful
You sang along

And if I miss your funeral
We will both know
That I sat by your bedside
Not too long ago
And I saw you smiling
And I heard you sing
And in that perfect moment
You were young once again
