I Was There

I was there when you laid in the rain I held your hand and felt your pain I was there, I saw you cry I held your hand and wiped your eyes I was there when you laid in the rain I held your hand and took your strain God was there too He wanted something, and it was you We were there, the day you died Right there with you, as you cried God picked you up and cleared your eyes He said “follow me son to paradise” I didn’t want to, but I let your hand go I watched as your wings began to grow I was there when you laid in the rain I held your hand and felt your pain God assured me that he’d take care of you I let you go, even though I didn’t want to I turned around and began to cry You kissed my cheek and wiped my eyes You promised me that you were alright And you’d never forget, I was there that night!!
