Layne Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I heard today that you were gone
I had to stop and sing along
The song they played to say goodbye
A song that gave, gave me back life
[Chorus]
You'll never fade
The words you gave
My life you saved
Your name was Layne
[Verse 2]
And on that day, a child was born
To someone who you helped along
And helped see through his darkest times
Because of you, this child she is mine
[Chorus]
You'll never fade
The words you gave
My life you saved
Your name was Layne
[Bridge]
The words you said
You made me feel like they were all for me
The words you said
They will always be a part of me
The words you said
You made me feel like I was not alone
With what you said
You gave me all the strength to carry on
[Chorus]
So to me you'll never fade
Your life you gave
My life you saved
Your name was Layne
