My tears fall like rain
On your cold grave
I wasn't there in your time of need
And it cost me your
Warmth, love, and friendship
But most importantly
It cost you your life
As I look at all your pictures
I ache inside knowing that
I let you down
I can say I'm sorry for all eternity
But it will never stop
The pain of your loss
And it will never be enough
To bring you back to me
