You're Gone

I said, hello, I think I’m broken
And though I was only joking
It took me by surprise when you agreed
I was trying to be clever
For the life of me I never
Would have guessed how far the simple truth would lead
You knew all my lines
You knew all my tricks
You knew how to heal that pain
No medicine can fix.
And I bless the day I met you
And I thank God that He let you
Lay beside me for a moment that lives on
And the good news is I’m better
For the time we spent together
And the bad news is you’re gone.
Looking back it’s still surprising
I was sinking you were rising
With a look you caught me in mid-air
Now I know God has His reasons
But sometimes it’s hard to see them
When I awake and find that you’re not there
You found hope in hopeless
You made crazy sane
You became the missing link
That helped me break my chains.
And I bless the day I met you
And I thank God that He let you
Lay beside me for a moment that lives on
And the good news is I’m better
For the time we spent together
And the bad news is you’re gone
The bad news is you’re gone…
