On Nights Like This

No matter what anyone says time doesn't pull you through
Cause there are nights when I still cry when I think of you
Sometimes it swallows me in this space I feel inside
But I think of how strong you were and it
Helps me to get by

And all the times when you would come to
Me in my dreams
I thought I was losing my mind, but it's the
Sanest I've ever been
And on those days when life seems too much
I hear your voice and I'm comforted by your touch

On nights like this
I know that you're still here with me
On nights like this I know you're in a better place
On nights like this I pray

I may be with you again someday
On nights like this I pray
That I may be worthy someday

There's the anger that blocked out the light
There's the doubts that held me captive night after night
The endless hours I spent asking why
When there's so many evil people, it just doesn't seem right

On nights like this
I know that you're still here with me
On nights like this
I know you're in a better place

On nights like this I pray
I may be with you again someday
On nights like this I pray
That I may be worthy someday

And I remember the night when I held you in my arms
Trying to give you the strength, the will to hold on
And you looked in my eyes and said "baby be strong
I don't want to leave you but it's time for me to go"

And at that moment, as your hand slipped out of mine
A tear rolled down as you closed your eyes for the last time
And all the pain that had been written on your face
Suddenly disappeared and by a smile it was replaced

On nights like this
I know that you're still here with me
On nights like this
Know you're in a better place
On nights like this
I pray I may be with you again someday

On nights like this I pray
That I may be worthy someday
