~ I Will Let It Be ~
All I have are yesterdays sorrows
I have come this far with loss of any tomorrows
I can hear his voice calling from his soul
Chills my spirit, flesh, and bone
I will let it be, God is calling to me
Sitting on a golden moon, I suffocate
My soul is on fire with no shade
Feels like I'm not awake
Shattered in one stroke, broke into a million pieces
This space is black as the darkest skies
Recieved the worst news of my life
I will let it be, God is calling to me
He was the stone in the wall
I could jump from it, and he would catch my fall
Shedding tears into the bottom of a waterfall
He took my wings so I can't fly
My world has stopped spinning by
In slow motion it seems, and all I can do is cry
I will let it be, God is calling to me
Love was like a million drops of rain
Billions of stars left in wane
I've said my last goodbye
My husband was the last to cry
Only because he had to leave me behind
I will let it be, God is calling me
Nothing can take this pain away
I know he was taken by choice
There's nothing else to say,
he has taken my voice
He is the stone in the wall
He will still catch me when I fall
I will let it be, God is calling me
