Sometimes He Taketh Away

I remember when you told me that our lives were ?bout to change

I was down in San Antone, you were back home in Killeen

We couldn?t help but come up with a bunch of different names

We forgot about the worries and the things the doctor said...

I even had a dream that I saw her little face

I held her in my arms she had the sweetest little smile

But deep down inside we knew that our hopes would soon expire

I didn?t know it would hurt so much

When you told me she was gone...

Chorus:

We cried and we held each other tight

We tried to make sense and not deny

Sometimes things happen for a reason they say

Sometimes the Lord giveth

Sometimes he taketh away

So we sat up in the bed and I wiped your tears away

We came to terms with our misfortune, we even smiled a while

And I promised you that someday soon we?d start to try again

Oh how I pray to God

That he?d give us one more child

Chorus:

We cried and we held each other tight

We tried to make sense and not deny

Maybe the next time everything will be ok

Sometimes the Lord giveth

Sometimes he taketh away

Sometimes the Lord giveth

Sometimes he taketh away
