[Verse 1] I still hear you in the hallway, echoes down the halls See your shadow in the doorway, every framed-up wall You were here and then you weren’t, like the turning of a page Now I’m holding all this heartache, trying to carry all this weight [Pre-Chorus] I keep breathing for our family, wiping tears from tired eyes Trying hard to keep us steady when they’re asking me why I look up and I’m begging for a reason I can’t find And I feel you in the quiet, in the corners of my mind [Chorus] These are all the words I couldn’t say Questions that surround me when the light just fades away Every sunrise that I see, every heavy, aching day I’m still reaching out to you, hoping you can hear me pray If you’re living in the light beyond this pain I’ll keep walking through the heartbreak till I see your face again [Verse 2] We would talk in little pieces, you would make me laugh at night Now I’m staring at your pictures trying to hold your smile tight I lie waking in the darkness when I can’t protect my heart As it breaks in tiny splinters, pulling every hope apart [Pre-Chorus] I keep standing in the kitchen where your dinner plate once lay Asking heaven all these questions that won’t ever go away God, I’m trying to stay steady while this grief keeps rolling in Did You need him in a heaven I can’t wrap my arms around again? [Chorus] These are all the words I couldn’t say Questions that surround me when the light just fades away Every sunrise that I see, every heavy, aching day I’m still reaching out to you, hoping you can hear me pray If you’re living in the light beyond this pain I’ll keep walking through the heartbreak till I see your face again [Bridge] Are you smiling in the starlight, are you laughing in the rain? Are you singing with the angels where there isn’t any pain? God, I’m breaking but I’m trying not to let my family fall If he’s with You, let him know I’m giving them my all [Chorus] These are all the words I couldn’t say But I feel you when the evening takes the noisy day away Every breath I’ve got in me, every step along the way I’m still reaching out to you, hoping you can hear me pray If you’re living in the light beyond this pain Hold a place beside you till I see your face again [Outro] Till I see your face again, where the hurting finally ends We’ll be talking like we used to, where this broken road will mend I’ll stay strong for those who need me, even when my sky is gray Till the day we’re reunited, with the words I couldn’t say
