lyrics

I started young
A long time ago
My first taste of love
Seven years old
I got in a fight
And sent home from school

Over you

And on down through our teens
We stayed hand in hand
Sharing our dreams
We made some plans
I took you home to meet the folks
They made a big to-do

Over you

And it seemed like there was nothing in our way
Then it all began to change
You say it’s just a cloudy day
But to me, it feels like rain

They hand out your time
Give you maybe a year
Apologies are made
But I can no longer hear it
I’m looking for a miracle
A small patch of blue

Over you

They said I stayed
With you day and night
They said I prayed
And never left your side
And went off the deep end
In that white sterile room

Over you

And I will always remember
Just before you said goodbye
When you pulled me close, and whispered
No matter where you go, or whatever you do
You know that I’ll be watching over you

Over you
