What If You Had Stayed?

This is your song
At my fingertips
The music you would play
This your soul
And the soundwaves
That would hold the tears at bay

But what if you still played it with your hands?
And made the melody soar
What if you still played it with your hands?
Would my heart feel more whole?
And what if you were here to sing these words?
Would your hands be raised to the sky?
What if you had stayed with me on earth?
What if you had stayed?

This is my cry
For forgiveness
For leaving you alone
This is my vow
Not forget you
This song will keep you close

But what you still played it with your hands?
And made the melody soar
What if you still played it with your hands?
Would my heart feel more whole?
And what if you were here to sing these words?
Would your hands be raised to the sky?
What if you had stayed with me on earth?
What if you had stayed?

I never got the chance to say goodbye
I never got to thank you
For shaping my life
But we'll have the music to keep us going strong
We'll always have the harmonies to help us get along

But what you still played it with your hands?
And made the melody soar
What if you still played it with your hands?
Would my heart feel more whole?
And what if you were here to sing these words?
Would your hands be raised to the sky?
What if you had stayed with me on earth?

What if you had stayed?
What if you had stayed?
What if you had stayed?
