Boston Souls

Wrote this when the tragic event happen in Boston back in 2014

In my heart, a legacy of memories
I hear the silence scream your name
This emptiness you left behind
I still yearn to see your smile

I wish I could feel your warmth again
But the nights have grown so cold
Now that you’re no longer here
I ache for the touch I used to know

[Pre-Chorus]
Is this our adieu?
Was this the final goodbye?

[Chorus]
Dear darling, you have fallen so far
My angel, I see tears in your eyes
You are not forgotten in this life
Please never believe that you are

[Verse 2]
I never imagined this day would come so fast
Life took you, placed you in fate’s hands
My days grow gray, my world feels small
How can I stand without you at all?

We never had the chance to say goodbye
I thought I’d kiss you before our world collapsed
I cannot be strong without you here
Have I lost my final chance to say goodbye?

[Pre-Chorus]
Is this our adieu?
Was this the final goodbye?

[Chorus]
Dear darling, you have fallen so far
My angel, there are tears in your eyes
You are not forgotten in this life
Please never believe that you are

[Bridge]
God, give me strength
To survive these darkest days
Why must innocent blood be shed?
I’m sorry I could not protect you

[Final Chorus / Outro]
Dear darling, you have fallen so far
My angel, now lay your head down
Rest your soul, rest in peace
My love�"this is not our farewell
