Life is to short

Verse 1

Late night phone calls, heart beating fast

Every ring feels heavy from the past

I think about the people I hold dear

Praying every day they’ll still be here

Doctors’ rooms and waiting chairs

Quiet tears and whispered prayers

I’d trade anything, I swear it’s true

Just to keep another day with you

Chorus

I’m scared of losing the ones I love

Scared of the silence when words give up

So I hold you close, don’t let you go

Say “I love you” so you always know

Life is short, and time moves fast

I’m scared of losing the ones I love

Verse 2

I see your smile, but I know the pain

Trying to be strong, trying to stay the same

Every cough, every bad day

Makes my mind run far away

I wish I had the power to heal

To make every hurt you feel unreal

All I can do is stand right here

And fight the fear, year by year

Verse 3

I think about the day you might be gone

How the house would feel so wrong

Empty chairs and pictures on the wall

Memories echo down the hall

So I try to live in the here and now

Make every promise, keep every vow

Laugh a little louder, fight a little less

Love you more, forget the rest

Chorus

I’m scared of losing the ones I love

Scared of the silence when words give up

So I hold you close, don’t let you go

Say “I love you” so you always know

Life is short, and time moves fast

I’m scared of losing the ones I love

So I hold you close, don’t let you go

Say “I love you” so you always know

Life is short, and time moves fast

I’m scared of losing the ones I love

Verse 4

If tomorrow brings another fight

I’ll be there through every night

Hand in hand, we’ll face the pain

Hope in our hearts through the rain

No one knows how long we get

But loving you is my best bet

Through fear and tears and all I fear

I’ll love you while you’re here

Chorus

I’m scared of losing the ones I love

Scared of the silence when words give up

So I hold you close, don’t let you go

Say “I love you” so you always know

Life is short, and time moves fast

I’m scared of losing the ones I love

I’m scared of losing the ones I love

Through fear and tears and all I fear

I’ll love you while you’re here

Life is short, and time moves fast

I’m scared of losing the ones I love
