Sending Light (For Lucas)

I love you now
I'll love you then
No matter how long it has been
I'm scared I might forget your face
Trying to remember the last place
I looked in your eyes
You lived your life with grace

God, I'm trying to be strong
Trying to write the words for this song
People say the good die young
That's what they say in all those songs
That I've heard before
Now I know why they're sung

I'm lost without you with me
Long to find you in my dreams

Sending light to wherever you are
Stop and stare every time I see a bright blue car
Is that you playing
Metal music blaring

But it's one day a time
Not one minute when you're not on my mind
I'll see you later
Hard to wait here

Sending light to wherever you are

Tell me how you were so kind
Said you were a man of disguise
You kept your troubles all inside
And only ever ask 'bout mine
While you knew you were running out of time

I'm lost without you with me
Long to find you in my dreams

Sending light to wherever you are
Stop and stare every time I see a bright blue car
Is that you playing
Metal music blaring

But it's one day a time
Not one minute when you're not on my mind
I'll see you later
Hard to wait here
Sending light to wherever you are
