lyrics

I remember that there was a time
When all that I knew was a girl
And I was blind to the world
Life kept us incredibly high
And if you looked in her eyes you would find
That the spark was strong

She was
A gem really one of a kind
And she could
Sing out her heart in a sigh
Just one sigh

Then that evening, got the call, refused to believe it
Raced to the hospital pleading
For hope to come
The doctor spoke softly as if it would help me
But words didn’t matter, his face told it all
Her time was over, and she was gone

She was
A gem really one of a kind
And she could
Sing out her heart in a sigh
Just one sigh

You would say that love fades away
As the seasons change
But I’d say that love ain’t the game
That we’re playing here
And I find those memories
Are my only piece of eternity

Yeah she was
She was a gem really one of a kind
And she could
She could sing out her heart in a sigh
