What Brings Life Also Kills

Dear, I'm writing this for you As I sat here in my sorrow Dear, I'm writing this for you As I contemplate tomorrow Why did it end so soon? They say just be thankful for the time that you had But it's hard to be thankful When what's dead is the only good that you ever had But I know there's somethin' in these hills And I know what brings life also kills So hold on and love strong Even when the one you love is gone And remember now what you didn't know then And how you wish you could take it all back 'Cause you're gonna miss her And she's gonna miss you, too And dear, I'm writing this for you As I walk down our old favorite street You always loved the wintertime The coats, the scarfs the leaves and the trees I swear I still smell your perfume As I walk by our old favorite place to eat And I wonder if the pain will subside Or will my knees forever be this weak And I know there's somethin' in these hills And I know what brings life also kills So hold on, and love strong Even when the one you love is gone And remember now what you didn't know then And how you wish you could take it all back 'Cause you're gonna miss her And she's gonna miss you And you're gonna miss her And she's gonna miss you, too
