What I Wouldn’t Give

What I wouldn’t give
                   To hear you cry, or laugh, or speak



What I wouldn’t give
                     To hear you call my name



What I wouldn’t give
                   To hold you in my arms again



What I wouldn’t give
                   To see you run and play



What I wouldn’t give
                   To teach you to ride a bike


What I wouldn’t give
                   To look into your brown eyes again


What I wouldn’t give
                   To see you next to your twin


What I wouldn’t give
                   To feel your heartbeat once again


I would have given my life
                   So that you could have lived
