Never Be The Same

' Never Be The Same (For Scrappy) ' By John J. Ruppert 4-28-2006

(First Verse)

I watched your life pass right before my very eyes

I stood there praying to God as I held you so tight

I wanted to ask for his forgiveness for what I did

I guess I will never know if my decision was right

(Second Verse)

You gave me a lifetime of love and joy

And I repaid you with an eternity of pain

I'll never get that memory out of my mind

And my heart and soul will never be the same

(Chorus)

You were my friend

And I betrayed your trust

You were my companion

I'm missing you so much

You were there by my side

I caused you unwanted pain

I think of that day and I cry

Never gonna be the same

Without you by my side

So alone I'll continue to cry

Until I hold you once more

In Heaven

(Bridge)

Every time I think of what we had together

I cry

I though what I was doing was for the better

I tried

And every moment that comes back to me

I cry

Oh how I tried to ease your pain set it free

I tried

(Third Verse)

I sit alone looking at the photographs I have

But no matter how hard I try I can't feel you

I want to see you walk back through that door

Wish I could turn back time and then heal you

(Fourth Verse)

I remember looking into your eyes and holding you

I kept telling you that everything was going to be ok

I remember watching your eyes close for the last time

I remember the love they forever showed me that day

(Chorus)

Cause,

You were my friend

And I betrayed your trust

You were my companion

I'm missing you so much

You were there by my side

I caused you unwanted pain

I think of that day and I cry

Never gonna be the same

Without you by my side

So alone I'll continue to cry

Until I hold you once more

In Heaven
