Lighthouse

We all held candles the other day
 Let go of 50 balloons
 your mother said things that she wanted to say
 some people got choked up and everyone tried hard to
 age slowly, try again tomorrow and
 not let this happen again
 Though we can't understand it
 lest we ever forget,
 I will stand here, as a lighthouse
 Carry on
 Carry on
 I wish I could see you another time
 I wish I could turn things around
 I wish that my sorrow could lead me to find
 another few hours, another few ways to try
 age slowly, try again tomorrow and
 not let this happen again
 Though we can't understand it
 lest we ever forget,
 I will stand here, as a lighthouse
 Carry on
 Carry on
 And we don't have to wonder
 we know we all miss you the most
 we know we all miss you the most
 'Ya we know we all miss you the most
 I put on your sweatshirt the other day
 Because I was thinking of you
 tried to remember what my preacher told me
 about tryin' to make every precious moment last and to
 age slowly, try again tomorrow and
 not let this happen again
 Oh...
 Though we can't understand it
 lest we ever forget,
 I will stand here, as a lighthouse
 Carry on
 Carry on
