I'm Gonna Lose You
I’m Gonna Lose You
Words & Music by Steve Siler
Can’t imagine the world without you in it
There was a time when you seemed ten feet tall
It hurts to see your earthly frame diminish
When you used to run circles around us all
If you can read the grief behind my eyes
You know the pain I’m in
But you won’t hear me say the words out loud
‘cause I don’t want to admit
I’m gonna lose you
No matter how hard I try
You’re going to leave me
There’s no way to get this right
Even if the care I give
is the best that I can do
When your race is through
I’m going lose you
Some days I’m overwhelmed by whys and what ifs
And knowing things will never be the same
There’s no way to get ready for what’s coming
All I can do is love you well today
But I can feel you slipping away from me
We’re running out of time
And every moment I am with you now
is part of the goodbye
Repeat CHORUS
One day soon you’ll trade this world for heaven
You’ll lay this weary body down
And receive your crown
But…
Repeat CHORUS

This CD even ministers to the caregiver long after the loss. It reassures me that even though I did my best to take care of my daughter, there was nothing I could do to keep her from leaving. It is, indeed, healing music for the soul, and I thank you for it.

I’m Gonna Lose You slayed me with sobs of my sweet Daddy slipping into the arms of Jesus.
