A picture perfect life that we’ve been living

But I finally understand that it will end

And I’m grateful for the luck that we’ve been given

But there are lonely days that someone has to spend

There’s a certain kind of pain that only one of us will know

A certain kind of change you have to handle on your own

Waking in the night scared calling out your name

Then you feel your heart tear every day is the same

Learning how to live alone and slowly letting go

A certain kind of pain I hope and pray you never you never know

You never know

Never know

You never know

I hope you never know

There’s a woman down the road she’s always walking

So I shovel out her sidewalk when it snows

And she thanks me with a smile when she sees me

Then walks inside the front door all alone

With a certain kind of pain that only one of us will know

A certain kind of change you have to handle on your own

Waking in the night scared calling out your name

Then you feel your heart tear because everyday is the same

Learning how to live alone and slowly letting go

A certain kind of pain I hope and pray you never you never know

You never know

Never know

You never know

I hope you never know

And baby there’s no better way to say it

But it’s coming for us, it’s coming for me, it’s coming for you

Yea we thought it was coming for you

I remember what it was like to watch my grandmother sit alone by the phone

I don’t want that for me but I don’t want that for you

So I’ll take one for the team like I always do

And I know it’s a fucked up way to say it

But I don’t ever want to cause you pain

And I don’t want you to have to live a single day without me loving you

You and me should never spend a day apart

You and me should never spend a day apart

You and me should never spend a day apart

You and me should never spend a day apart

I remember waiting in that hospital hallway

I remember sleeping alone in the house with the girls

I remember your father crying on my shoulder

I don’t want you to know what that feels like

And I remember when the doctor said you were ok

I remember when the doctor said you were ok

I remember when the doctor said you were gonna be ok

You never know

Never know

You never know

I hope you never know
