Lyrics
Was a day like any other day
A good morning kiss, a hot cup of coffee
You'd never know the whole world was about to change
And then that telephone rang at 8:17
And every day she seemed just fine
But there was always that thought in the back of
Her mind; if I'm gone here's your favorite recipes
If I'm not here cancel those credit cards and magazines
If I moved on here are some things you'll need
Some passwords and a mailbox key
And hang that favorite picture of me there on the wall
Know I love you, know I loved you if I'm gone
Know I loved you, know I loved you if I'm gone
We did what all the doctors said; the radiation, the chemo
All the family shaved their heads
It was war and it was grace
And it was amazing to watch young waiver in faith
I met her as the nurses rolled her down the hall
Before we hit those double doors she made them stop and in a voice
Real soft said, "If I'm gone, don't
Let that bottle get the best of you
If I'm not here call our children every day
If I moved on, make sure you carry on
Shoulders back and chin up strong
And don't hesitate one second when she finally comes along
Know I love you, know I loved you if I'm gone
Know I loved you, know I loved you if I'm gone."
