If I Could

One year has passed since that fateful day
When I watched as God slowly took you away
The legacy of the life you left behind
Makes it much more painful to say "goodbye"
This doesn't seem real, I don't know what I feel
A thousand questions burn & churn inside my heart

If I could turn back time, if I could push rewind
If I could shift the paradigm, I would
But maybe if I tried, if I opened up my mind
I could bring you back to life, for good

Why are the good ones taken first
Leaving us with the heathens
And this multitude of hurt?
Where is the justice in matters of fate?
Ever fleeting and absent
As life's slowly taken away
This never seems to end
Soon enough isn't soon enough until we meet again

If I could turn back time, if I could push rewind
If I could shift the paradigm, I would
But maybe if I tried, if I opened up my mind
I could bring you back to life

Why, oh why, did the angels take you home?
(This wasn't supposed to happen yet)
There's so much that we missed
But I can feel you now
As my entire world is spiraling down

If I could turn back time, if I could push rewind
If I could shift the paradigm, I would
But maybe if I tried, if I opened up my mind
I could bring you back to life

Oh I never wanted, wanted it to end
But I know I'll see you again
Whether it be far or soon
