On Nights Like This

Soraya

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
