October – Callie Moore – letras

It’s been 25 years and 11 days sinceI was last in the womb of a woman celebrating her painBut in her body she was carrying something elseAn unwelcome guest, an intruder in a beautiful houseThey say that cancer is a hard and stubborn manBut still he teaches us something that nobody else canI had a letter that she wrote me but I couldn’t read the cursive yetSo Daddy sat me in his lap and he readAnd what she said to me I didn’t really grasp it yetAnd after all these years I finally understand itLove will never leave this placeNo, love will never leave this placeYou know, looking back I was a happy child,I did so much better than to just surviveBut I guess I’m singing this song somehowBecause I know somewhere in this world right now…You’re sitting in the emptiest corner of the darkest roomYou’re fighting some great war you fear you’re gonna loseIf I could find you in the moment of your greatest painI’d take you by the hand and I would sayCome on and stand up, I wanna see you liveAs though there’s something beautiful you have to give’Cause there is… yeah there isCome on and stand up, let me see you see this throughAs though you’ve got somebody holding on to you’Cause you do… yeah you doAnd love will never leave this placeNo, love will never leave this placeCome on and stand up, I wanna see you liveAs though there’s something beautiful you have to give’Cause there is… there isCome on and stand up, let me see you see this throughAs though you’ve got somebody you can hold on to’Cause you do… you doAnd love will never leave this placeNo, love will never leave this placeIt’s been 17 years and a single daysince the child that I was became the child that I still am today
