Dear Shawn,
If I could roll back the hands on the clock
A few short years ago, before your heart stopped
Convince you to leave, while you still could
Because the risks you were taking you misunderstood
I wouldn't be here now if it weren't for you then
But I know if I could do it all again
The world has to be a better place
When it holds your determined face
So I take back the "I love you's"
And those warm arms I'd refuse
Welcome the pain in an open embrace
A broken soul is all you'd replace.
But I can't repay you, and we can't trade
My memories of you are starting to fade
But when I've fallen, and don't want to go on
In my heart I'll always have you, Shawn
