The day has come and I couldn't bring myself to see you
Not that I didn't care for you, but
The vision last seen on that day of your last breath
Is the only memory I wanted left
And not that of a glance from where you lay

This was better for me
But I'm sorry

Hundreds represented at your home coming
and for that I smile

For they all know my heart
God knows my heart more

And...

This was better for me
But still I'm sorry.
