I still can see the headlights cut the dark
Your head upon my lap,
your beating heart
I tried to hold the pieces,
tried to stay
But winter 2023 took you away
I thought that was the end of my whole world A lonely
road with no more songs to hurl
But then you sent a boy with eyes like rain
A little laugh that washed away the pain
He taught me how to breathe again,
how to stand
I'm still just learning how to hold your hand
He has your quiet way of listening
Your gentle heart, your stubborn,
sweet insisting
I try to be the man I know you'd see
A better version of the one you left with me
I'm making it right,
one day at a time For you,
for him, for everything that's mine
But then you sent a boy with eyes like rain
A little laugh that washed away the pain
He taught me how to breathe again,
how to stand
I'm still just learning how to hold your hand
And every time I see him run and play I know you're
watching, smiling anyway
You couldn't save me then,
but somehow you did
A little piece of you,
a precious gift
But then you sent a boy with eyes like rain
A little laugh that washed away the pain
He taught me how to breathe again,
how to stand
I'm still just learning how to hold your hand
I'm still just learning how to hold your hand (oh,
your hand) I'm still just learning
