Wedding/Funeral

This is for your wedding/funeral day
 You always liked to be the center of attention
 So here you are
 Dressed so beautiful
 Just like I remember
 Always outshining the rest
 Sun, moon, and stars
 You face looks so content
 As I walk to find a chair
 Just a few feet away, but miles apart
 Why did I let you go
 How could I let you leave my side
 Would have been something amazing
 Should have been wild
 Why did I let you go
 How could I let you leave my side
 Would have been something amazing
 Should have been wild and learned
 I'm a great burning lament to this day
 But I realize now you're in a better place
 Hands will tremble
 As you're lowered down the aisle
 But you won't look at me
 Not so much as smile
 I want to stand up and speak my peace
 And let your hollow pieces walk away
 Why did I let you go
 How could I let you leave my side
 Would have been something amazing
 Should have been wild
 Why did I let you go
 And let you leave my side
 Would have been something
 Should have been wild
 Why did I let you go
 How could I let you leave my side
 Would have been something amazing
 Should have been wild
 Why did I let you go
 How could I let you leave my side
 Should have been something
 Should have been wild and learned
