Verse

Today I walked down our old street

Past the diner where we'd meet

Now I dine alone in our old seats

The cold wind blows right through my bones

And I feel like I'm getting old

But I wish I was getting old with you

Pre-chorus

I held your hand while we took shelter from the rain

She laughed as we picked out our childrens names

Chorus

White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away

Black arrows cut the strings of my heart I kneel and pray

Verse

Her clothes hang in the closet still

Her phone sits on the windowsill

And every time it rings it gives me chills

My heart just stopped when I was told

Doctor, Doctor, on the phone

Said my love was never coming home

Pre-chorus

I hold your casket gently walk you to the grave

Dark clouds eclipse the sun won't shine again

Chorus

White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away

Black arrows cut the strings of my heart I kneel and pray

They gave her one more day

To say the words I couldn't say

I'm crying in pain

Crying in pain

Bridge

And I'm not looking for answers

No I'm not looking for answers

But dear god why did you choose her?

Chorus

White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away

Black arrows cut the strings of my heart I kneel and pray

They gave her one more day

To say the words I couldn't say

I'm crying in pain

Crying in pain

Our love will remain

I'm crying in pain
