Lyrics

She got the news
The phone hit the floor
She fell to her knees and cried his name
He'd just kissed her lips
Both of the kids
Their lives will never be the same
At the end of her hardest day
The only wordds she could say were

I want you to live
I want you to love
I wanna go back to the way it was
To hear you say my name again
I wanna see your smile again
I want you to live

It takes all of her strength
To go through his things
IT feels like shes holding him again
The letters he wrote
The books taht he read
And some of his shirts stil have his scent
The picture in Florida
She holds to her heart and crises out loud

I want you to live
I want you to love
I wanna go back to the way it was
To hear you say my name again
I wanna see your smile again
I want you to live

Lying awake in the middle of the night
Trying not to let the kids hear her cry
She prays for an answer
Some little sign and closes her eyes
And 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 Im alright
I want you to fall in love again
I want to see you smile again and again
I want you to live
