The Passing from Nondivision by Rob Miles

I got a message this morning
I didn’t expect what the message did say
I got a message this morning
I didn’t expect what the message did say
It said the woman that I love
She has passed away

I ran right out of my front door
As fast as I was able
I ran right out of my front door
As fast as I was able
When I got to the hospital she wasn’t in her bed
She was already laid out on the table

I walked up right close, I looked down
At the cold still beauty of her face
I walked up right close, I looked down
At the cold still beauty of her face
I said, ‘what has left this body
Nothing in the whole world can replace’

The amount of people at the funeral
Stood in testimony to her worth
The amount of people at the funeral
Stood in testimony to her worth
It hadn’t hit me what had happened
Until they began to cover her up with earth

I cried and cried all the night long
There was no comfort to be found
I cried and cried all the night long
There was no comfort to be found
I don’t know how I can carry on
If she’s not around

Sometimes I wake up thinking I
Can hear her calling out my name
Sometimes I wake up thinking I
Can hear her calling out my name
I keep telling myself but I find it hard to believe
I’m not to blame
