lyrics

I got the call today, and your voice sounded scared
You stumbled through your words as you spoke what I feared
And we didn't have much time, so I raced out the door
Leaving all my things behind, praying God let me see you once more

Cause I didn't know that you were gonna leave me
I didn't know that I wouldn't see you again
I didn't know that I couldn't hug you
One last time and tell you I love you again
Cause you're never quite prepared

What if I had said, that I loved you every chance
That I got to see your face, well it still wouldn't bring you back
And all I wanted was another day with you
But the end always comes too fast, it always comes too soon

Cause I didn't know that you were gonna leave me
I didn't know that I wouldn't see you again
I didn't know that I couldn't hug you
One last time and tell you I love you again

Cause you're never quite prepared
To face the things you cannot bare
You're never quite prepared, to lose a friend
