Chasing The Light

[Verse 1]
Today, the greatest man I've ever known has passed away
Lying there so peacefully, he's not hurtin' anymore
I bet he's there at Heaven's door
Wavin' with a smile on his face

[Verse 2]
Tonight, safe behind my bedroom door I'll cry
Trying to calm the peace with all those things I didn't say
I hope he knew them anyway
Didn't know that I'd be runnin' out of time
Today

[Verse 3]
In the mornin', I'll wake to find this wasn't some bad dream
And as I fall to pieces I'll be forced to realize
That even heroes died
I'll sit and dry these tears from my eyes

[Chorus]
Tonight, I'm haunted by those things I didn't tell you
Hidin' from the truth that I can't face
I pray the angels sang a song and Jesus held you
As I held your hand and watched you slip away
I know dyin's part of livin'
But with him it just don't fit into the plan
To lose the man that made me the man I am

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Tonight, I'm haunted by those things I didn't tell you
Hidin' from the truth that I can't face
I pray the angels sang a song and Jesus held you
As I held your hand and watched you slip away
I know dyin's part of livin'
But with him it just don't fit into the plan
To lose the man that made me the man I am

[Outro]
Today, the greatest man I've ever known has passed away
