When she got the news
the phone hit the floor
she fell to her knees and cried his name
He had just kissed her lips
both of the kids
their lives will never be the same
the end of her hardest day
the only words she could say was
(Chorus)
I want you to live
I want you to love
I want to go back to the way it was
to hear you say my name again
I want to see you smile again,
I want you to live
It takes all of her strength
to go through his things
it feels like she's holding him again
The letters he wrote
the books that he read
some of the shirts still have his scent
the picture in Florida
she hold to her heart and cries out loud
I want you to live
I want you to love
I want to go back to the way it was
to hear you say my name again
I want to see you smile again
Wide awake in the middle of the night
Trying not to let the kids hear her cry
She prays for an answer the sun will shine
She closes her eyes
She swears she hears him say
I want you to live
I want you to love
I want you to go on and not give up
I want you to live
I want you to try
I want you to know that I wont rise
I want you to fall in love again
I want to see you smile again
I want you to live
I want you to live
