The churchyard was cold And I could see my every breath Up until this day I had never Felt the feeling of loss and death With my head held down I couldn’t believe how fragile I was Life shattered to pieces When I realized I lost my true love I held onto my daughter And I watched her as she slowly… Folded her hands And then she started to cry She asked me, “Daddy, does it hurt to die? For a moment I paused, closed my eyes I was speechless Words escaped my mind My wife was gone And her mother had died I answered back, “Today it hurts to be alive.” The drive home we sat in silence And didn’t know what to say We both lost the biggest part of us And wondered “Why this way?” Years later, it was I who had been Graced by the hands of time I sat her down and explained That everything’s going to be fine I held onto my daughter And I watched her as she slowly… Folded her hands And then she started to cry She asked me, “Daddy, will it hurt to die? For a moment I paused, closed my eyes I was speechless Words escaped my mind Her mom’s gone And I’ll lay down by her side I answered back, “Heaven’s beautiful inside.’” [Instrumental Break:] I held onto my daughter And I watched her as she slowly… Folded her hands And then she started to cry She asked me, “Daddy, will it hurt to die? Your mom told me, “Heaven’s beautiful inside.’”
