LYRICS:
IF I COULD ONLY TAKE THAT DAY BACK
REPLAY IT LIKE A SONG IN MY LIFE’S SOUNDTRACK
I WOULD RE-WRITE IT SO I COULD ERASE WHAT I FEEL NOW
BUT REALITY IS HEAVY LIKE A DARK CLOUD
I STILL GOT THE MAIL THAT I RECEIVED FROM HER
WE HAD A SHOW SHE SAID SHE’D BE THERE
SHARING THE SAME DREAM, CAME ACROSS THE WORLD JUST TO
SEE US
HOPING SHE COULD MEET US
AFTER THE SHOW TOOK A PICTURE TOGETHER
IN ONE QUICK FLASH BUT IT LIVES FOREVER
QUICK HUG, THE MOMENT PASSED SO FAST
I COULDN’T KNOW IT WOULD BE OUR LAST

CHORUS
CAN THIS BE THE END OF THE TRANSMISSION
SENDING YOU A MESSAGE
SINCE YOU WENT MISSING
CAN THIS BE THE END OF THE TRANSMISSION
SENDING YOU A MESSAGE
SINCE YOU’VE BEEN MISSING…
AND I’M WISHING AND I’M WISHING
YOUR HEART LISTENS YOUR HEART LISTENS
AND I’M WISHING AND I’M WISHING
YOUR HEART LISTENS YOUR HEART LISTENS

I LIVE IN A COMMUNITY SO TIGHT, WORLDWIDE
IN ONE BLINK OF AN EYE WE LOST ONE OF US
A LIFE TAKEN. AT AN AGE SO YOUNG. SO WRONG
OUR WORLD WAS SHAKEN
IT’S LIKE THE REAPER CAME AND TOOK YOU FROM US
IN SUCH A CRUEL WAY, IT WILL NEVER BE JUST
MY THOUGHTS GO TO THE FAMILY OF EMMA
CONDOLENCES, IN OUR HEARTS SHE LIVES FOREVER
THE LOSS WE SHARE BROUGHT US TOGETHER
SO I WROTE YOU THIS LETTER
HOPE YOU GET IT. YOU’RE IN A PLACE MUCH BETTER
IN LOVING MEMORY OF

IF I COULD ONLY TAKE THAT DAY BACK
REPLAY IT LIKE A SONG IN MY LIFE’S SOUNDTRACK
I WOULD RE-WRITE IT SO I COULD ERASE WHAT I FEEL NOW
BUT REALITY IS HEAVY LIKE A DARK CLOUD
I STILL GOT THE MAIL THAT I RECEIVED FROM HER
WE HAD A SHOW SHE SAID SHE’D BE THERE
SHARING THE SAME DREAM, CAME ACROSS THE WORLD JUST TO
SEE US
HOPING SHE COULD MEET US
AFTER THE SHOW TOOK A PICTURE TOGETHER
IN ONE QUICK FLASH BUT IT LIVES FOREVER
QUICK HUG, THE MOMENT PASSED SO FAST
I COULDN’T KNOW IT WOULD BE OUR LAST

CHORUS

THAT’S WHEN IT HIT ME. TAKE A PICTURE, HOLD IT WITH ME
CAUSE THE END COMES TOO QUICKLY
I LEARNED TO VALUE EVERY MINUTE OF LIFE
ON MY PATH SEEN PLENTY STRUGGLE AND TRIFE
COME HOME, KISS MY DAUGHTER AND WIFE
AND NEVER LEAVE IF WE’RE IN A FIGHT
PROMISE TO MAKE IT RIGHT
I CARRY ON THINKIN OF YOUR SMILE. AND THE LESSON
THE HERE AND NOW IS THE ESSENCE

IF I COULD ONLY TAKE THAT DAY BACK
REPLAY IT LIKE A SONG IN MY LIFE’S SOUNDTRACK
I WOULD RE-WRITE IT SO I COULD ERASE WHAT I FEEL NOW
BUT REALITY IS HEAVY LIKE A DARK CLOUD
I STILL GOT THE MAIL THAT I RECEIVED FROM HER
WE HAD A SHOW SHE SAID SHE’D BE THERE
SHARING THE SAME DREAM, CAME ACROSS THE WORLD JUST TO
SEE US
HOPING SHE COULD MEET US
AFTER THE SHOW TOOK A PICTURE TOGETHER
IN ONE QUICK FLASH BUT IT LIVES FOREVER
QUICK HUG, THE MOMENT PASSED SO FAST
I COULDN’T KNOW IT WOULD BE OUR LAST
