Fast asleep and dreaming
|
Woke up, to the phone ringing
|
Looked at the clock, and I braced myself
|
It can't be good, at 4 a.m.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
There is no reason
|
Why bad things happen to good people
|
I'm gonna hold on, even though, I wanna lose my mind
|
But I gotta stay stong, for the ones left behind
|
|
I've got memories of a smiling face
|
Nothing can fill, this empty space
|
There's no making right, what went wrong
|
Cherish what's left, and try to move on
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
There is no reason
|
Why bad things happen to good people
|
I'm gonna hold on, even though, I wanna lose my mind
|
But I gotta stay stong, for the ones left behind
|
|
Every night I say the same soft prayer
|
Watch over the ones that I love
|
Then I woke up, to my worse nightmare
|
Still I gotta have faith, in the One above
|
|
[CHORUS 2x:]
|
There is no reason
|
Why bad things happen to good people
|
I'm gonna hold on, even though, I wanna lose my mind
|
But I gotta stay stong, for the ones left behind
|
