You can't measure our loss in tears,
because so many were shed.
You can't measure our loss in days,
because so little time has past.
But you can measure our loss in love,
because our love is greater now than ever before.

You can't say sorry for what has been,
because we look forward not back.
You can't ask why this has happened,
because only God knows this.
But you can say thank you,
because God is looking after them now.

You can't forget this happened,
because you'll forget them eventually.
You can't just stop living,
because you only get one chance to live,
But you can keep hold of the memories,
because they will get you through it all.
