• Why was it you?
    Why couldn't you stay?
    Why did you have to leave that day?
    It should of been me,
    I can't see why not.
    I shook my head in that parking lot.

    "No, I won't go, I'll just stay here."
    You nodded, and sped away.
    That was the last time I saw you that day.
    The last time anyone did, really.
    The light turned green and you hit the gas,
    and some drunk came around.

    You didn't even see him,
    Didn't have a chance.



    He took you away, that bright summer day.
    I wanted to be mad,
    wanted someone to blame.
    I was even shocked when it trickled in my mind,
    that maybe it was your fault,
    you didn't have to leave.

    But baby, I'm sorry I even thought like that.
    Just promise me, that up in heaven,
    You'll keep your arms wide open for me.
    'Cause babe you know,
    I can't stay here forever.

    And on that faithful day, when he takes me too,
    Baby, I'll reunite with you.

    I miss you Danielle, your blonde wavy hair.
    That beautiful smell yu left in the air.
    The nice happy vibe, you always gave me.
    Even if I was ready to run you up a tree.

    We'll meet again, you and I.
    In that big white kingdom, up in the sky.
