“YOU WOULD BE MISSED”
WRITTEN BY WADE NEWMAN

Videos by American Songwriter

When you’re standing
Between life
At those crossroads
And the razor’s edge
When every attempt
You make to reach out
Pushes you
Nearer to the ledge

Remember
This love that holds on
Through your darkest
And most painful hour
That breaks through
Your cloudy thoughts
Like the brilliant sun
Touching you with its power
And then remember…

CHORUS:

You would be missed
Your laughter brightens someone’s days
You would be missed
Tears say you’re human in so many ways
And if you passed
That’s someone less to be kissed
So remember someone loves you
And you would be missed

I’ve been there
Where you’re standing
Not wishing to see
Tomorrow
But this life we have is
A precious gift
And there’s no time
That we can borrow

So hang on
To your last thread
Though you fear
It might break
And choose to live
Through another day
If only for
Someone else’s sake
And then remember…

REPEAT CHORUS
