Song Lyrics

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

You had it all planned out
You and him together in a big white house
Happy ever after's all you dreamed about
And nothing could be better

Cause you knew that you could
Make it through any weather but
Things changed when he moved away
You were all by yourself through the lonely days

All you could do was pray, then the phone call came
I think we're heading separate ways
Your heart stopped and you dropped to your knees

God why is all this happening to me
I understand everything's not perfect
But you're there through the worst of it
And Lord, I hear you say

Tonight, let every tear you cry and everything wrong inside
Bring you to me so I can make it right
Cause even in the hardest times, you only need to realize
What you mean to me, so let me be your lullaby

I knew a boy from the Southside
Him and his friend were inseparable
Hung out all day, watched football games
Wherever one went the other would go

But one night he got a phone call
Something happened that brought tears to his face
There was an accident
We tried to save your friend but it was too late

Why is all this happening?
I just lost my only friend
I need to know I'm not alone
I can hear you gently whisper

Tonight, let every tear you cry and everything wrong inside
Bring you to me, so I can make it right
Cause even in the hardest times, you only need to realize
What you mean to me, let me be your lullaby

They say if life gives you lemons make lemonade
Cause bitter sweet is the tune that it likes to play
We're all instruments played on a different day
Like a symphony, like a symphony

We're born married into life and there's no divorce
Sometimes we're powerless to change the course
And when the innocent pay the cost
We all mourn the loss, we all mourn the loss

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
No matter the pain, no matter the cost
Know this

Tonight, let every tear you cry and everything wrong inside
Bring you to me so I can make it right
Cause even in the hardest times, you only need to realize
What you mean to me, so let me be your lullaby

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Let me be your lullaby

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Let me be your lullaby
