Lyrics
The sun will rise tomorrow
Just like it always has
With one less weary witness
To impress
And I will wake to Mary
And she will wake to me
But what will mark the absence
Our hearts see
If I could I would
Bring him back I would
Hold his hand in my own
'Cause I can't see how
A man could be
So completely alone
There can be no rebuttal
And there won't be a goodbye
To grace this grievous sunset
In our sky
So I will face the music
And still my shaking hand
With every fading memory
Of the man
If I could I would
Bring him back I would
Hold his hand in my own
'Cause I can't see how
A man could be
So completely alone
The sun will rise tomorrow
Just like it always has
With one less weary witness
To impress
