standing here
or sitting there
it really does
not matter where

i see your face
i hear your voice
echos now
without a trace

where are you
why not with me
i want you here
why cant you be

i find your name
in my old book
i start to cry
but still i look

it was our picture
just me and you
we were so happy
look at us two

and now your gone
without goodbye
and all i can do
is sit and cry

you wont be back
yes i know
even as inside
our child does grow

why did he have
to drive so drunk
as the officer spoke
my heart just sunk

how could that man
do such a thing
now all i have
is our wedding ring

you were my life
my second soul
without you here
i am not whole

i'll never forget you
you know thats right
and i wont let this go
without a fight

So now today
in court at last
I listen to them speak
about the past
They talk of love
the talk of life
they mention me
your loving wife

It is my turn
to say my mind
i hear your voice
say please be kind

and now as i stand
before the court
inside my mind
my thoughts won't sort

and as i stand there
crying softly
i begin to realize
all this has cost me

i'm now alone
with just our child
and this man may be free
again to run wild

I compose myself
and begin to speak
i tell the court
about that week

i speak of how
we loved so great
i speak of how
i'm filled with such hate

i understand
or so i try
but there was no reason
my husband needed to die

I ask you all just one small thing
when you drink
don't drive
just stop and think.
Is It Worth It??
