Now you're pictures that you left behind, are just memories of a different life
           A#
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry,
          Am               A#         C
One that made you, have to say good - bye

What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair

To touch your lips, to hold you near

I've made mistakes, I'm just a man
         Dm
When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
         C
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
