Lyrics
It happened so fast, It was like any other day
But One minute you were here
and then next you went away
All I remember, I looked the towards the sky
And it looked like it was snowing
But it was warm outside
Chorus:
When the Cottonwood Falls
I think Of you
And I curse myself for not telling you I Love You
Why did you leave that way
Theres not a day that passes by
when I dont think of your goodbye
These days are harder, These days are longer
When the Cottonwood Falls
I've learned to except the truth,
but when I let the time go by
I take in every moment
like its my last breath of life.
Its harder for everyone to understand my pain.
But they didn't lose you on such an ordinary day
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
You Cant stop Gods hands from
taking what is his
But I wish you could have told me cuz' I would have given you one last kiss
You were my fire you still burn within my soul
Why Did you have to go!
Why did you have to go?
When the Cottonwood falls...
Repeat Bridge
When the Cottonwood Falls
I think of you.....
