First the sound of the phone call ringing in my ear

Then the voice of your new widow

telling me you’re no longer here

Split second I don’t believe I heard her

So I asked if she was sure

Then I came back to my body and my despair was pure

The wave crashed over me

I was helpless as can be

(Won’t somebody help me sing)

Hallelujia we sing…

I stood frozen at your service

And I cursed your wicked name

For I loved your sense of wild and true abandon

But it took your life the same

I belted out my song with the passion

And the fury of my grief

I could sense my tribute made you smile

And I was baptized with relief

Here we sit now 7 years later

I still get the urge to call

For I’ve loved you hated you missed you cursed your leaving

Felt guilty smiles and all

I’ve learned the things that I thought you held only

Others have as well

And the love I thought I lost when you crossed over

Still surrounds me now as far as I can tell

And the wave crashed over me

I was helpless as I can be

Somebody help me

Hallelujah we sing
