When She's Gone lyrics

she has a light and a faith that won't die
she has the heart of a lion and the will to survive
she has a pretty young daughter back home
who'll soon start to cry when she's gone
when she's gone, when she's gone
when she's gone

now she spends her days with a mission to live
she loves to laugh, and will offer her hand to forgive
and she has a man with two arms open wide
who will take her hand when she's gone
when she's gone, when she's gone
when she's gone

she fights through the pain and she smiles when she sleeps
and dreams of the day when we'll all finally meet
she often says that she lives in a world we'll never know
she hopes we'll never know

we sit together and talk about our faith
we play a game where we'll sing all our troubles away
though she's glad to be with me
she knows damn well that her next life awaits
when she's gone, when she's gone
when she's gone, when she's gone
when she's gone, when she's gone
