Analysis of Those Taken Away
If we only would have had the chance
To say "goodbye", one more time
Or that final
I love you, one more time
Or just to hear
the voice, one more time
These words will never be
Spoken or heard, one more time
For you were taken away
For no reason at all
The heartache is unbearable
The not knowing is the worst
For now you are watching over us
Guiding us
For now you are all ANGELS
In gods hands...
