He Sang This on Easter… And No One Could Hold Back Tears 💔 | Michael Bennett

They said today brings life again. But you didn't come back. Sunrise falling on the old church window Golden light across the floor People smiling, holding hands together Like they've been healed before I see your place beside me empty Still untouched just like last year They say heaven's doors are open So why aren't you here? They're singing hallelujah But my voice won't even stay The light came back this Easter morning But you didn't walk through the door They say love lives on forever But I need you here once more If death has truly been defeated The preacher said it once Then why does this silence feel so heavy? Where your laughter used to be Candles flicker in the choir Choir echoes through the air Everyone is full of hope now I'm just drowning in this chair I still hear your voice behind me Calling names so clear Maybe heaven feels like yesterday But today you're not here If I'm not real today Then why do I feel you? The light came back this Easter morning But my world is still the same They say grace can heal a broken soul But it can't erase your name I would trade every prayer they're saying They sing above Just to hold you one more moment Just to feel your love This Easter morning And I'm standing here alone So I'll keep your chair beside me Until heaven calls me home Maybe on the other side When this pain is finally gone I'll hear you say you never left You were with me all along
