The Recovery System - What I Wouldn't Give Lyrics

Reaching out
To take hold of something
And bring it close to my heart
Wishing you were in between
I fall to my knees
Forehead on the floor
Arms across my chest
Still unwilling to accept
What I wouldn't give
To hold you in my arms
To hear your voice again
I'm still haunted by the moment that you left
What I wouldn't give
To be warmed by your presence
To feel your comfort when I'm anxious
To see your joy and your excitement
When I come home
What I wouldn't give
I keep seeing you
Being taken away from me
And you always look so scared
Like you don't know where you're going
Or what's happening
You lift your head and try to breathe
As the color leaves your skin
And your eyes can't break their stare to straight ahead
What I wouldn't give
To hold you in my arms
To hear your voice again
I'm still haunted by the moment that you left
What I wouldn't give
To be warmed by your presence
To feel your comfort when I'm anxious
To see your joy and your excitement
When I come home
What I wouldn't give
Every night I relive the moment you stopped breathing
The doctor did everything they could
But you still slipped away
I screamed and begged as I held your lifeless body
Please don't go
Please don't go
Please don't go
Please don't go
What I wouldn't give
To hold you in my arms
To hear your voice again
I'm still haunted by the moment that you left
What I wouldn't give
To be warmed by your presence
To feel your comfort when I'm anxious
To see your joy and your excitement
When I come home
What I wouldn't
