Mallary Hope

I reached for you this morning
woke up with empty arms
once again it's sinking in
how far away you are
I still pour two cups of coffee
Tell you all about my dreams
this kitchen's way too quiet
you should still be here with me
Even though I cry like crazy
even though it hurts so bad
I'm thankful for the time God gave me
Even though we couldn't make it last
I'm learning how to live without you
even though I don't want to
Even with you gone, love lives on
I still call your mom on Sundays,
yeah It's good to hear her voice.
She always tell me that same story
about her little stubborn boy
And I kept your favorite t-shirt.
You know the one I used to hate,
Ain't it funny how it's the one thing I just can't throw away.
Even though I cry like crazy,
even though it hurts so bad
I'm thankful for the time God gave me.
Even though we couldn't make it last
I'm learning how to live without you,
even though I don't want to.
And even with you gone, love lives on.
She comes with me on your birthday
little flowers in her hand,
she's always known that something's missing
but too young to understand
and someday she's gonna ask me
what kinda man you were.
I'll tell her all the ways I loved you
and all the you I see in her.
And even though I cry like crazy
even though it hurts so bad.
I'm thankful for what god gave me,
and she's the perfect way to make you laugh.
I'm learning how to live without you
baby I don't want to
But even with you gone, love lives on…..
baby love lives on
love lives on
Ohhhhhhh ohhh ohhh
Yea yeah yeahhhh
