Stonewashed - Joshua текст песни

I watch her waiting powerless

She can't understand this is her son

Holding him tight late at night

Knowing she'll never rock him to sleep

She's singing him songs

As she fights the tears



I watch him holding his hand

Kissing his face carefully

Saying hello, saying goodbye

Never forgetting the smell of the skin

As the tears filling his eyes

Every move of his boy he's absorbing



I close my eyes as I cry

And see You comming closer

With Your arms open wide we hand him over

We want to see him grow

But we know he can't stay

So please take him home

To the place where one day

We'll meet again



Now that you're gone

There's a wound in my heart

You're blood of my blood

Now that you are gone

There's an empty space

That can never be filled



I close my eyes as I cry

And see You comming closer

With Your arms open wide we hand him over

We wanted to see him grow

But we know he couldn't stay

You've taken him home

To the place where one day

We'll meet again



Whispering your name

Reminds us we are parents

Calling out your name

Proves you are part of us

And our heart cries

And our soul aches



We wanted to see him grow

You've taken him home

To the place where one day

We'll meet again
