Parting Words Lyrics

I quiver at the thought of your departure
The constant whisper of a life without your grace
I just wish it could be me in your place
To bless the world with a sense of relief

For every moment I spent sleeping away the guilt,
I’d die a thousand times to bring you back
And keep you safe from what bodes you ill
Shed your form and drift away
Seek the comfort of weightlessness

I lost myself when you found the Lord
But I believe that death can’t keep us apart
We’re either on the wrong side of the earth,
Or separated by the absence of a heartbeat

Shed your form and drift away
Seek the comfort of weightlessness

I wish I’d taken this time to grow,
But we all feel like giving up eventually
All I have left is the hope that I’ll see you again
All I have left is the faith that I’ll see you again
So you might know love when you hear them,
Let these words ring out forever
I’ll scream until my last breath
