• At night I used to cry to sleep
    And kept wondering why he took you from me
    What did I do that was so bad
    I keep wondering why
    I wish you could stay

    In my dreams every night
    I'm trying to open your eyes
    And for a while I start to realise
    You're not coming back
    Hug and whisper in your ear
    That I love you
    And that I will miss you
    My dear

    How frail you became
    It made me so sad
    You made me feel high
    Like a father to me
    I slept soundly as you climbed
    Up those white stairs
    Oh please come back
    I don't wanna let go

    It's been a while now
    I tried to forget
    I promised I wouldn't cry
    But these tears fall down
    And I'm still wondering why
    He took you from me
