Life According To Raechel

Once your girl, I'm always your girl

When I'm here or when I'm there

Or on a plane headed somewhere

You were staring down the cars

Hoping it would be one of ours

Children and grandchildren writing you cards

But how long were you waiting for me

To make a left down your street?

It's not if, darling, it's when

Was there something left unsaid?

Were your eyes green, were they blue?

What was it that I forgot to ask you?

Busy hands, I'll set 'em down

To say I love you right out loud

I'll bet you're making Heaven laugh

But it feels like tears and memories are all we have

Once I knew it, I was always a know-it-all

Too busy, too stressed out to take your call

Thought I would always find you there, sitting in your TV chair

While time is in a bar having a laugh somewhere

The nurse said you were waiting for me

To let go, to let it be

It's not if, darling, it's when

There's always something left unsaid

Were your eyes green, were they blue?

What was it that I forgot to ask you?

Busy hands, I'll set 'em down

To say I love you here and now

Did God need a new lead in His band?

When this world and its people are all we have

Once your girl, I'm always your girl
