If I Knew

You tried to call
But I wouldn't answer
You tried your best to get rid of the cancer
It's hard to find out
Your best friend is dying
You can't help but start crying

Chorus
If I knew how you felt
I would come, I would help
If I knew you were hurting
Not deserving what was happening
I would come to the rescue
I'd do anything for you
If I knew
But it's too late
It's too late now...

You said you'd be around forever
So I guess forever isn't that long
All those times I was mad at you,
I wish I could take them back
And I wish you were here instead of there

Repeat Chorus

Don't want you to go
But in my heart I know you have to
If you just let me please say goodbye one last time

Repeat Chorus

Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye.......

This song was written for K.H.
I had a dream you were gone.  And I woke up crying.  I hope you never really have to 
go.  I love you, friend...
