On Nights Like This

No matter what anyone says time doesn't pull you through
cause there are nights when i still cry when i think of you
sometimes it swallows me in this space i feel inside
but i think of how strong you were and it
helps me to get by
And all the times when you would come to
me in my dreams
i thought i was losing my mind, but it's the
sanest i've ever been
and on those days when life seems too much
i hear your voice and i'm comforted by your touch
On nights like this
i know that you're still here with me
on nights like this i know you're in a better place
on nights like this i pray
I may be with you again someday
on nights like this i pray
that i may be worthy someday

There's the anger that blocked out the light
there's the doubts that held me captive night after night
the endless hours i spent asking why
when there's so many evil people, it just doesn't seem right

On nights like this
i know that you're still here with me
on nights like this
i know you're in a better place
On nights like this i pray
i may be with you again someday
on nights like this i pray
that i may be worthy someday
And i remember the night when i held you in my arms
trying to give you the strength, the will to hold on
and you looked in my eyes and said "baby be strong
i don't want to leave you but it's time for me to go"
And at that moment, as your hand slipped out of mine
a tear rolled down as you closed your eyes for the last time
and all the pain that had been written on your face
suddenly disappeared and by a smile it was replaced
On nights like this
i know that you're still here with me
on nights like this
know you're in a better place
on nights like this
i pray i may be with you again someday

on nights like this i pray
that i may be worthy someday
