Today I walked down our old street   Past the diner where we'd meet   Now I dine alone in our old seats   The cold wind blows right through my bones   And I feel like I'm getting old   But I wish I was getting old with you   I held your hand when we took shelter from the rain   She laughed as we picked out our children's names      White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away   Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray      Her clothes hang in the closet still   The phone sits on the windowsill   And every time it rings it gives me chills   My heart just stopped when I was told   Doctor, doctor, on the phone   Said my love was never coming home   I hold your casket gently walking to the grave   Dark clouds eclipse the sun won't shine again      White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away   Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray      They gave her one more day   To say the words I couldn't say   I'm crying in pain, crying in pain      And I'm not looking for answers   No, I'm not looking for answers   But dear God, why did you choose her?      White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away   Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray      They gave her one more day   To say the words I couldn't say   I'm crying in pain (crying in pain)   Crying in pain   Our love will remain   I'm crying in pain
