One Step Away Lyrics

As the minutes pass, I look to you
I know you're not alright
I'm past the point of thinking straight
I can only watch and cryDon't say the words that mean the end
Don't tell me to go on
Don't leave behind an only son
To wish that you were goneAs a boy I held your hand
I never wanted you to leave
I could not ever understand
And now I'm here in disbelief
Do you have to say goodbye?I've lived my life, knowing now
Imagining you here
Knowing what would take your life
Recounting all my tears
Did you see them then?
Did you think of how
You would tell someone
"I have to leave now"?As a boy I held your hand

I never wanted you to leave
I could not ever understand
And now I'm here in disbelief
Do you have to say goodbye?One step awayAs a boy I held your hand
I never wanted you to leave
I could not ever understand
And now I'm here in disbelief
Do you have to say goodbye?
