Fall (Devin's Song)

I'm standing at the screen door

Looking out at where you used to play

My baby, you'd be all grown up now

This should be your graduation day

A million tears I have cried

If love alone could save, you never would've died

If tears could build a ladder tall

Surely I've built thousands, but all they do is fall

Your friends are in the auditorium

You should be with them in your cap in gown

We should be packing you up for college

'Cause you had big dreams, far bigger than this town

A million tears, we have cried

If love alone could save, you never would've died

If tears could build a ladder tall

Surely we've built thousands, but all they do is fall

That morning, when you left us

We had no time to say goodbye

Our hearts are forever broken

Lord, please kiss him and hold our angel tight

A million tears, we have cried

If love alone could save, you never would've died

If tears could build a ladder tall

Surely we've built thousands, but all they do is fall

Surely we've built thousands, but all they do is fall
