When I saw your face
On that fateful day
I saw, in you, a hope
I saw a way
To make everything okay
So why'd you have to go
And when the tears come down
Like falling rain
And my heart, it breaks
On this day
No ears will hear
What I say
What I promised you
On that day
I was by you side
Through out the games
Silent like a shadow
And when the shot rang out
I felt afraid
With the knowledge of that sound
And when your heart beats stilled
I found that mine did too
And that hope I'd found
It left with you
And when the tears come down
Like falling rain
And my heart, it breaks
On this day
No ears will hear
What I say
What I promised you
On that day
So on that fateful day
When you stood alone
And gave it all away
I swore to myself
That next time I'd stand too
No matter what they say
And when the tears come down
Like falling rain
And my hear, it breaks
On this day
No ears will hear
What I say
What I promised you
On that day
I spent my time
On that roof
Sitting all alone
I heard the shouts
The lies they spread
And I just turned away
And on that day
When I saw your face
My heart, it stopped again
Standing there
I felt them come again
Those tears I'd never cried
And you swept me up
And I saw those beautiful eyes
I felt my hope return
So it was in your arms
That I just let it go
And those lies, they fell away
And then the tears came down
Like the falling rain
And my heart, it healed
On that day
No ears had heard
What I never say
Our promise then
On that day
You promised me
That you'd stay safe
And I promised you
To wait always
And when no tears come down
They've left like rain
And our smiles will return
For all our day
And all will hear
What we say
What we promise here,
To stay always
