Yes I know you're leaving
And it's hard for me to cry
Yet when our time is over
A piece of me will die
You were my life
You were my light
You were not perfection
But you were heaven in my eyes
An indirect reflection
Of who I am and why
You were my life
You were my everything
You were my life
Don't leave me (2x)
Don't leave me here this way
I need you (2x)
I need for you to stay
Can heaven wait just one more day
See nothing else can take your place
Can heaven wait just one more day
What I'd give just to hold you one last time
And thank you for all the joy you brought to my life
You showed me I could be more than what was made for me
Please don't think that I chose to walk away
I never meant to abandon you this way
I wish God gave me a second chance to say
You were life
You were my life, my light
What am I gonna do
Without you
Yes I know you're leaving
