Lyrics

The day we played I was a mess I stood like a child tugging on a mother's dress asking why As your family and all of our friends walked in with awkward heavy heads All knowing it just hadn't hit yet And every time I saw the hands, the burning candles and the crosses Every time I glanced up at the goodbyes I realized I'd sacrifice the world for it For one minute more with you So big blue can you hear me sing? Big brother are you listening to me when I say I wish I had one more day? Do you know each day I see you on the avenue of arts Next to that single ribbon in a tree right in front of me? And when I do I know I'd sacrifice the world For just one minute more with you Even though I know half of knowing what you want Is knowing what you have to give to get it I'd sacrifice the world for it
