Things I Wish I'd Said

Rodney Crowell

You lay there fighting for each breath
While angels hovered 'round your bed
With open arms like Gods own smile
They led you to the lightWhat a battle you have won
And now your journey has begun
To the land where spirits fly
And your soul will never dieSo travel lightly in my heart
You and I will never part
And far beyond this world we see
Theres a place for you and meAnd I thank my lucky stars
We had a chance to heal our scars
Now I dont have to hang my head
Over things I wish Id saidSo here am I your only son
Im thinking back on work weve done
You were strong and I was young
Man we had our fightsAnd everything I felt for you
Has been turned to something new
And this is love I feel today
It will never go awaySo travel lightly in my heart
You and I will never part
Far beyond this world we see
Theres a place for you and meAnd I thank the moon and stars
We had a chance to heal our scars
Now I dont have to hang my head
Over things I wish Id saidI dont have to hide my tears
I dont have to drown my fears
And I dont have to hang my head
Over things I wish Id saidNo, I dont have to live in dread
Over things I wish Id said
