Rice

For the first time in a long time, I'm at a loss for words
It's been a long time since the first time when we met
I couldn't speak, I couldn't hear, I couldn't think
I was younger than I'd ever be
Didn't know how much you'd mean to me
And I couldn't say how much I'd change that day

My tight throat says it's too soon to write or speak
It was too soon for your tight rope to break
I should've called, I should've gone, I should've seen you
All those hours of my life
And all I did was let them pass me by
I couldn't move now I'll always wonder why

A week, a month, a year
And I'll still wish you were here
But I'll take everything you gave to me
And become who you knew I could be

When I go, well I'll know I never stopped or gave up
And I'll know when I go that I made the cut
With every day, with every breath, with every step
Your words echoed on my tongue
So I could finish what we'd begun
And I couldn't name a single day I didn't live

A week, a month, a year
And I'll still wish you were here
But I'll take everything you gave to me
And become who you knew I could be

A week, a month, a year
And I'll still wish you were here
But I'll take everything you gave to me
And become who you knew I could be
