I AM, 2024, English

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

When someone you love gets left behind
Suddenly taken before their time
Flowers we laid swept up in the cold
And now they're someone you used to know
Oh, I thought I'd come to terms with it
But I'm lying to myself again
Just trying to find some answers
I wish we could've saved you
I wish we could've helped you understand
Nobody would've blamed you
I wish you would've held on for a hand
Pray to God, you would've reached out
And given us a chance to change your mind
No one leaves us at the right time
I wish you knew you had a lifeline
I wish you knew you had a lifeline, lifeline
I wish you knew you had a lifeline, lifeline
Questions with answers we can't find
That's why it's harder to say goodbye
If I would've called, just picked up the phone
Would you still be someone I used to know?
Oh, I can't sleep still ruminating
Breaks my heart that I can't change it
Just trying to find some answers
I wish we could've saved you
I wish we could've helped you understand
Nobody would've blamed you
I wish you would've held on for a hand
Pray to God, you would've reached out
And given us a chance to change your mind
No one leaves us at the right time
I wish you knew you had a lifeline
I wish you knew you had a lifeline, lifeline
I wish you knew you had a lifeline, lifeline
I wish you knew you had a lifeline, lifeline
Before you left without a goodbye
I wish you knew you had a lifeline
