A single rose left to remember a single tear falls from her eye Another cold day in December A view from the day she said goodbye
seems it's only been a moment Since the angels took him from her arms She was left there Holding on to their tomorrow But as they lay him the ground Her heart would sing without a sound
For the first time you can open your eyes And see the world without your sorrow No-one knows the pain you left behind Or the peace you could never find It's waiting to hold and keep you Welcome to the first of your life Just open up your eyes
A single lifetime waves behind her As she draws her final breath Just beyond the door he'll find her her hand he softly says
For the first time you can open your eyes And see the world without your sorrow No-one knows the pain you left behind Or the peace could never find It's waiting there to hold and keep you Welcome the first day of your life Just open up your eyes
As I lay down tonight Safe on the other side No more tears cry
For the first time you can open your eyes And see the world without your sorrow No-one knows the pain you left behind Or the peace you could never find It's waiting there to hold and keep you Welcome to the first day of life Just open up your eyes
