I heard today that you were gone

i had to stop and sing along

the song they played to say goodbye

a song they gave, give me back life



[chorus]



you'll never fade

the words you gave

my life you saved

your name was layne

and on that day a child was born

to someone who you helped along

and helped see through his darkest times

because of you, this child she is mine



[chorus]



[bridge]



the words you said, you made me feel like they were all for me

the words you said, they will always be a part of me

the words you said, you made me feel like i was not alone

the words you said, you gave me all the strength to carry on



[chorus (altered)]



so to me you'll never fade

your life you gave

my life you saved

your name was layne
