Why Did You Have To Leave?


The tears wouldn't stop
When I heard the news.
The pain filled my soul
As you slipped away.

Why did you have to leave?
Why couldn't you stay just a little longer?
I asked God why
But the answer never came.

I prayed you would come back
But I knew you wouldn't.
Why did you have to leave?
Why couldn't your heart get better?

The hurt beat like a drum
When you went to heaven.
The sorrow flowed through my body
When your hands let go.

Why did you have to leave?
Why couldn't you hold on?
I hoped it was only a dream
But I never woke up.

I wished I could bring you back
But it was only a wish.
Why did you have to leave?
Why couldn't God have let you stay?

I will never know the reason
Why God took you away.
The pain may dull as the years pass
But my love will never fade.
