The Hospital Blues You Gave To Me lyrics

I spent far too many days Planning how to breach those gates So I could ask them for myself Why they had to give you wings Or why he had to pierce your heart Cause you had so much more to give There were words I needed badly to get off my tongue But your body was a shell of all the things I’d grown to love Scattered ashes and I shattered into glass-like shards of misery, I was young I took the blame for things I could’ve done And I’m sorry I don’t visit all the time I left you flowers but I can’t bear to see them die I still think about you every time the sun shines when it rains How the colours stretch across the sky, how I’ll never be the same I am sorry that you couldn’t see me grow into the man I am today I still miss you, I still miss you, I still miss you every day They better have had the angels lead you in Because I still can’t hear that Jimmy song without your harmonies slipping in And I’m sorry that they took your spark away I left you flowers, but I won’t stay to see them fade I still think about you every time the sun shines when it rains How the colours stretch across the sky, how I’ll never be the same I am sorry that you couldn’t see me grow into the man I am today I still miss you, I still miss you, I still miss you every day You left me writing notes to heaven Cause there's no way there is a God Who would commit that kind of felony Without looking back to stop And I’m sorry, yeah I’m sorry I don’t speak to you every day I guess I’m still a little bitter that they couldn’t let you stay for one more day I still think about you every time the sun shines when it rains How the colours stretch across the sky, how I’ll never be the same I am sorry that you couldn’t see me grow into the man I am today I still miss you, I still miss you, I still miss you every day
