Lyrics
[Verse 1]
God, please help me
I see that old black hearse roll by
Creepin’ down the gravel road
Headed for the church up on the rise
Dust on the windows
Crowd in their Sunday clothes
I’m standin’ here frozen
While the whole town slowly goes
[Chorus]
Give me a chance to say goodbye
One more minute, one more try
Let me touch that gentle hand
Like I did in better times
If I can’t stop this hurt inside
At least don’t let it pass me by
God, I’m beggin’ you tonight
Give me a chance to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
We were runnin’ late
Arguin’ over nothin’ at all
Now the preacher’s readin’ verses
And I’m stuck out in the hall
I smell the flowers
Hear the choir start to rise
But I can’t see her face
Through these tears in my eyes
[Chorus]
Give me a chance to say goodbye
One more minute, one more try
Let me touch that gentle hand
Like I did in better times
If I can’t stop this hurt inside
At least don’t let it pass me by
God, I’m beggin’ you tonight
Give me a chance to say goodbye
[Bridge]
I know You took her safely home (home)
I know You’re sittin’ by her side
But I’m still down here holdin’ on
To every word we left behind
So if You’re listenin’ like they say
Hear Your foolish, frightened child
Slow that old car down today
Just a little, just a while
[Chorus]
Give me a chance to say goodbye
One more minute, one more try
Let me kiss that gentle hand
Feel her fingers locked in mine
If I can’t stop this hurt inside
At least don’t let it pass me by
God, I’m beggin’ You tonight
Give me a chance to say goodbye
[Outro]
God, I’m beggin’ You tonight
Give me a chance
To say goodbye (mmm)
