I WISH YOU COULD TELL ME YOU KNEW

Walking down the aisle, my daddy with me
Tears in my eyes and an ache in my heart
I prayed to God, asked him why we had part
I begged and I asked please leave him with me
But the Lord took the man I dearly loved
I had hopes I had dreams of you being here
I pictured you holding my baby so dear
I saw you escorting me down the aisle
But that thought has been gone for quite a while
I hoped and I dreamed you’d stay here so long
That maybe a cure would come along
But your every heartbeat began to fade
God’s decision was final it had already been made
I wish I told you I loved you once more
But you passed too quickly through God’s open door
They tell me you knew how much I loved you
But I wish you could tell me you knew
