lyrics

I saw the picture you left behind
The same one I saved somewhere in my memory
1993 feels worlds away
Now that the waves pulled you out with the tide
And it's been 19 days and counting since you went away,
but I'm just glad I got the chance to say goodbye

Everything seems to reminds me of you,
but nothing feels the same anymore

It was nice to know you
It was nice to know you cared
It was nice to know you
It was nice living those memories we shared
Well I hope you had a nice life
And I hope to make you proud, if only you could see me
You gave me five more reasons
To know that I'll survive through all this pain

I'll bring you flowers painted lavender
With my arms reaching out for your hand
Lovely roses in your memory
Did you hear me when I said,
Did you hear me when?

I brought you flowers painted lavender
With my arms reaching out for your hand
Lovely roses in your memory
Did you hear me when I said,
goodbye?

It was nice to know you
I brought you flowers

It feels like only yesterday,
I called to wish you a Happy Birthday
