Lyrics
Whoever made the claim
That words could ease the pain
Never watched your tears fill up an ocean
Never saw your face, the moment you found out
That you'd have to live without, until heaven
Is there something I can do
Other than being here for you to ease the pain
If I can keep you from fallin', fallin' down
I'm sorry to sound selfish but I feel so helpless
Is it okay if I stay here with you and cry for awhile
Whoever made the claim
That words could ease the pain
Never watched you fall apart
Never put you back together
When you were broken down, into a million pieces
Scattered on the ground
Is there something I can do
What can I say, what can I do
