Rodney Crowell - Things I Wish I'd Said lyrics

rate me

You lay there fighting for each breath

While angels hovered 'round your bed

With open arms like God's own smile

They led you to the light

What a battle you have won

And now your journey has begun

To the land where spirits fly

And your soul will never die

So travel lightly in my heart

You and I will never part

And far beyond this world we see

There's a place for you and me

And I thank my lucky stars

We had a chance to heal our scars

Now I don't have to hang my head

Over things I wish I'd said

So here am I your only son

I'm thinking back on work we've done

You were strong and I was young

Man we had our fights

And everything I felt for you

Has been turned to something new

And this is love I feel today

It will never go away

So travel lightly in my heart

You and I will never part

Far beyond this world we see

There's a place for you and me

And I thank the moon and stars

We had a chance to heal our scars

Now I don't have to hang my head

Over things I wish I'd said

I don't have to hide my tears

I don't have to drown my fears

And I don't have to hang my head

Over things I wish I'd said

No, I don't have to live in dread

Over things I wish I'd said
