Gone For Now

Verse 1

Tuesday night the telephone rang

A voice I didn't know

Told me that the road had claimed her

Half an hour ago

I fell down on the kitchen tile

And couldn't find my breath

The woman who had held my world

Was taken by the rain

Pre-Chorus

I screamed at every ceiling

I begged for her to stay

The house went cold and empty

And I wanted to fade away

Chorus

But you caught me

When I couldn't hold on

You caught me

Before the morning come

I was standing on the edge

With nothing left to give

And you caught me

You told me I should live

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

You told me I should live

Oh-oh oh-oh

Verse 2

I kept her coat beside the door

Her shoes beneath the chair

I drove out to the river bridge

And parked the old car there

The water looked so quiet

So easy and so deep

But something held my shoulder

And told my soul to weep

Pre-Chorus

I heard a gentle calling

Like a friend I used to know

Said son I know you're broken

But I won't let you go

Chorus

So you caught me

When I couldn't hold on

You caught me

Before the morning come

I was standing on the edge

With nothing left to give

And you caught me

You told me I should live

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

You told me I should live

Oh-oh oh-oh

Bridge

Savior take this sorrow

Savior take this ache

Savior make me willing

To wake up for your sake

Chorus

You caught me

When I couldn't hold on

You caught me

Before the morning come

I was standing on the edge

With nothing left to give

And you caught me

You told me I should live

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

You told me I should live

Oh-oh oh-oh

You told me I should live
