Db5 Db5 Eb5/E5 Eb5 Eb5 E5 E5

If I could rewind time Then I'd like to let you know

Just one thing before your time go

That every moment you were living was a blessing to me

And I saw inside of you things that others couldn't see

Now people put you down for the way that you lived

But those people never knew you the way that I did

Don't be ashamed of who you were of how you died

I know you just wanted to find the brighter side

CHORUS

I know that you're gonna fly

Somewhere brighter on the other side

And one day I'm gonna be there too

Where the sun is shining and the water's blue

I know that you're gonna fly

Somewhere brighter on the other side

I know you're somewhere where you're finally free

And you'll always be a part of me
