If I had known that so soon you'd be gone,
If I had known that your life wouldn't last that long,
I would have tucked you into bed every time you asked,
read you a bedtime story while wearing a silly mask.

Now I stand here in regret,
Thinking of the life you never lead.
I stand here filled with sorrow,
Because I know you won't be shaking me awake tomorrow.

I wish that all of this was different wish I would've cared,
More about the memories and time we should have shared.

But wishing is hopeless no matter how much I love,
Because I know you're gone.
I just can't stress enough,
..but it doesn't matter because your life is done.

Forever my sister, no longer alive,
I'll never forget the day that you died.
If I could go back there's so much I would have tried,
but there's nothing I can do, so I sit here and cry.
