I don't know why God always takes the good ones first
And man I've tried to be strong and carry on, but damn this hurts
And I just wish that I could talk to you again, somehow, some way
Even if it's for a moment, so I can hear you say

Don't cry for me, I'm alright
Yeah, I'm better than you know
And this life can be a shorter ride
So don't waste it on sorrow
And just hold on to those moments
And the memories we shared
We're both headed for the same place anyway
I just beat you there

I know they say: Just give it a little time, you'll be okay
That might bе true, it don't really help mе today
And we ain't supposed to question the man upstairs
'Cause there's just so much I don't understand
It just don't seem fair

Don't cry for me, I'm alright
Yeah, I'm better than you know
And this life can be a shorter ride
So don't waste it on sorrow
And just hold on to those moments
And the memories we shared
We're both headed for the same place anyway
I just beat you there

And as each day goes by
I get a little bit stronger
But that don't stop me from wishing you
Were here a little bit longer
Whoa, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, whoa, oh

And so I'm gonna smile when I think of you
Like I know you'd want me to
And I know you're watching over me
In everything I do
And all those things I never got to say
Well I'll send 'em with this prayer
Then look up, wipe my tears and raise my beer
Mm, mm

And I'll see you there
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And I'll see you there
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
