He was begging by the mini mart
|
Who'da guessed he had a purple heart
|
Scars underneath his bearded chin?
|
I bet you don't remember him
|
|
'Cause you were running 20 minutes late
|
And he was only getting in your way
|
But when you brushed by that wounded soul
|
Last Thursday afternoon
|
You met somebody who would die for you
|
|
Phone rang at 8 last night
|
Who'd call at such a crazy time
|
Getting kids into bath and bed
|
Can't talk's about all you said
|
All he wanted was a Saturday
|
|
Morning conversation down at bakers cafe
|
You weren't thinking when you told your dad
|
Try back in a week or two
|
But you hurt someone that would die for you
|
|
Somebody who cared so much
|
They'd gladly give it all up
|
If that is what they had to do
|
It runs deeper than flesh and blood
|
|
Heaven knows no greater love
|
Than the sacrificed
|
They'd make to see you through
|
Somebody who would die for you
|
|
Just another Colorado day
|
Morning practice for her high school play
|
From out of no where the bullets came fast
|
Shattered more than library glass
|
|
They asked her if she believed in your name
|
And she didn't even hesitate
|
God, I can't help but wondering
|
If I had been in her shoes
|
Would I be somebody who would die for you?
|
|
Somebody who cared so much
|
They'd gladly give it all up
|
If that is what they had to do
|
It runs deeper than flesh and blood
|
|
Heaven knows no greater love
|
Than the sacrifice you made to see us through
|
Your son died for me
|
Would I be somebody who would die for you?
