Where You Are - Beth Crowley

You were taken away, but your light hasn’t left

You’ll just shine in another sky tonight

17 years is not enough time

We can search the world but we’ll always wonder why

So we can cry for what might have been

But I would rather be imagining

That now you dance among the stars

And that you’re smiling where you are

We may never fully understand

How this fits into the master plan

But you will never be that far

I hope you’re smiling where you are, you’re smiling where you are

Wounds turn to scabs, scabs into scars

The hidden marks that you left on us all

But for you we’ll trade, our sadness for strength

Because if we live for you, you’re never really gone

We can cry for what might have been

But I would rather be imagining

That now you dance among the stars

And that you’re smiling where you are

We may never fully understand

How this fits into the master plan

But you will never be that far

I hope you’re smiling where you are, you’re smiling where you are

This is our promise to you

We’ll take care of one another

That’s what you’d want us to do…

We can cry for what might have been

But I would rather be imagining

That now you dance among the stars

And that you’re smiling where you are

We may never fully understand

How this fits into the master plan

But you will never be that far

I hope you’re smiling where you are, you’re smiling where you are
