Verse 1:

I still can’t believe right out of the blue she was released and then set free
And Just like that she’s out of my life
Lord you tempted her into forever more, by providing the key to heavens door
Lord you got some pretty big explainin’ why you couldn’t wait until tomorrow
you never even gave me time to say goodbye

Verse 2:

Her spirit took flight while she followed your light on her last divine retreat
And just like that she’s out of my world
Lord you called her back home so suddenly in a flash and without any warning
and Lord I really have to wonder why you broke my heart into little pieces
you never even gave me time to say goodbye

Chorus:

I never even had the time to say I love you,
Not even time for a simple goodbye or to even say thank you
For being part of my life
I never even had a minute or two to tell her how much I’ll miss her
I never even had the time to say goodbye

Verse 3:

So take heavenly care of your new angel up there
While you teach her how to fly, and I'll promise you
I'll get on with my life
I know I must go on believing she had a heavenly reason for leaving
And Lord I’m not one for complaining but tell me when will my heart will finish paining
And why I never even had the time to say goodbye

REPEAT CHORUS
