Cancer

Alone, I count the hours
And wait until the phone has rung
I feel the fear beneath my lungs
I know what she’ll be saying
My hand is shakin like a leaf
I know she might be gone before
Before the week is done
I can’t say goodbye
And I don’t wanna try
I hope they removed your cancer
I will be the last
To run from the past
I hope they removed your cancer
Now you would always tell me
That grief and sorrow make us strong
But I just feel I can’t go on
Shall I inherit sunshine
I feel it slip away from me
I hope to find it one more time
Before this life is gone
I can’t say goodbye
And I don’t wanna try
I hope they removed your cancer
I will be the last
To run from the past
I hope they removed your cancer
If you go, you will see
What we talked about could be
On the other side of the sea
On your boat, in the sun
I’m sure it won’t be long
In my sleep, we’ll meet again so long
We’ll meet someday, be strong
I hope they removed your cancer
I can’t say goodbye
And I don’t wanna try
I hope they removed your cancer
I will be the last
To run from the past
I hope they removed your cancer
I hope they removed
I hope they removed your cancer
