[Verse 1]
The truth escapes your lips
And it hits my ears
I see the image of
Your body laying in the ground
Was I not enough?
Was I just too much?
I see the image of
My body laying next to yours
'Cause I am nothing now you're gone

[Chorus]
Oh as the chorus goes
I'll write you into song
And as these words repeat
It's keeping you alive

[Verse 2]
Can we decide our fate
With no ill intent?
I see the image of
Everyone I know embrace again
Maybe there is no light
In your world of dark
I see the image of
You're safe and sound I promise
Your body's free to live in peace
[Chorus]
Oh as the chorus goes
I'll write you into song
And as these words repeat
It's keeping you alive

Who am I without
The one I write about?
So oh, as the story goes
I'll see you once again

[Bridge]
The jewels that you left on the edge of your bed
I returned them to you like you asked
The rings and the bracelets will never go wasted
You're beautiful even in death

[Verse 3]
The truth escapes my lips
And I hope you hear
I see the image of
One day we'll love again

[Chorus]
Oh as the chorus goes
I'll write you into song
And as these words repeat
It's keeping you alive
Who am I without
The one I write about?
Oh, as the story goes
I'll see you again
