I once knew a girl
she had a beautiful life
everybody loved her
she got it all, and even more
But then she lost it all
she fell apart, her father died
Sister, she lost after that
Young she was, we all loved her
Your pain I could find from far away
I broke down and cried
Your sister goodness she was
I loved her and worshiped her
Your father was good to me
a better man was hard to find
where was god when he hurt you
did he not see what he was doing to you
Life is not fair
I heard you lost your baby girl
part of my died
I cried for you
The pain was hard to bear
I wanted to take your pain away
In my mind, I looked it away
I dreamed that life was okay
Sorry for your loss; I said
you walked awayMaybe I said it the wrong way
all I wanted to do was to be there for you
after all this time, I still think of your family
as they were mine
I'm a girl just like you
I never lost so many as you
but girl, these people was a friend to me
when they died, I lost a part of me
