Only You Know
No matter how many tears I cry
or many questions why?
I know I will never find the answers
within myself or nobody else
because lord only you know why he had go
The number of his days and all of his ways
only you know
I tried but these tears won’t be denied
My soul still cries out for him
A boy lost in the world of sin
before he was taken
I wondered if he knocks on the gate of heaven
would he be let in?
I don’t know how much more of this that I can take
because every time I think of him my heart breaks
If I could I would change that day and make stay
So I wouldn’t have to pray this pain away
