A year ago today I found out you were here As the doctor spoke the words I barely shed a tear A year ago today Was the day my life changed I couldn’t take it in at all There were no words to say A year ago today I didn't know what to do The shock was overwhelming How could there be a 'You'? A year ago today I found out you weren’t meant to be It didn't make sense, this wasn't meant to happen The words burned my heart, you see Now, one year later If you had stayed with us, here What would you have been like? Would you have been like me? Now, one year later Would you have been like Dad? He wonders too, what could have been It still makes him so sad We didn't know you were here We hadn't planned it, we don't know why But it still breaks our hearts some days And it still makes us cry We didn't know you were here And even though it wasn't meant to be You still touched us, more than you know Forever, with us, you will be

A Year Ago Today
A year ago today I found out you were here As the doctor spoke the words I barely shed a tear A year ago today Was the day my life changed I couldn’t take it in at all There were no words to say A year ago today I didn't know what to do The shock was overwhelming How could there be a 'You'? A year ago today I found out you weren’t meant to be It didn't make sense, this wasn't meant to happen The words burned my heart, you see Now, one year later If you had stayed with us, here What would you have been like? Would you have been like me? Now, one year later Would you have been like Dad? He wonders too, what could have been It still makes him so sad We didn't know you were here We hadn't planned it, we don't know why But it still breaks our hearts some days And it still makes us cry We didn't know you were here And even though it wasn't meant to be You still touched us, more than you know Forever, with us, you will be
