Where You Are

You were taken away, but your light hasn’t left
You’ll just shine in another sky tonight
17 years is not enough time
We can search the world but we’ll always wonder why
So we can cry for what might have been
But I would rather be imagining
That now you dance among the stars
And that you’re smiling where you are
We may never fully understand
How this fits into the master plan
But you will never be that far
I hope you’re smiling where you are, you’re smiling where you are
Wounds turn to scabs, scabs into scars
The hidden marks that you left on us all
But for you we’ll trade, our sadness for strength
Because if we live for you, you’re never really gone
We can cry for what might have been
But I would rather be imagining
That now you dance among the stars
And that you’re smiling where you are
We may never fully understand
How this fits into the master plan
But you will never be that far
I hope you’re smiling where you are, you’re smiling where you are
This is our promise to you
We’ll take care of one another
That’s what you’d want us to do…
We can cry for what might have been
But I would rather be imagining
That now you dance among the stars
And that you’re smiling where you are
We may never fully understand
How this fits into the master plan
But you will never be that far
I hope you’re smiling where you are, you’re smiling where you are
