Standing over you now,
two flowers on the box
They've laid your head in
One rose is red and one is white,
I stand and wish
That it was me instead in there

A tear rolls down my face
And I know I'm not alone
In this room of mourning
Can't shake the memory from my mind
How you left me without warning

Falling down again, into myself
Over the memory of someone else
Can I hide away, within Your peace?
Or should I cry out, and release?

It always makes me cry
to think that I don't know
Which way you're headed
Never thought that you would die
I was young, and was naive
And I'll always regret it

Am I so weak that I
Couldn't find the words
To ask something so simple?
Will I see you standing with
My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
When I rejoin His temple?

But still you wait for something more
Falling down again, into myself
Over the memory of someone else
Can I hide away, within Your peace?
Or should I cry out, and release?

Falling down again, into myself
Over the memory of someone else
Can I hide away, within Your peace?
Or should I cry out, and release?
