I don't want to talk about
The way that it all went down
Just that it doen't seem right to me
That right now they're supposed to be happy tonight
Sitting by the Christmas tree
Getting kisses from their daddies
Making memories
And when I think of all their little faces
All I can see
She could have been sixteen
Homecoming queen
And just next year for Halloween
He'd be spider man, hold his daddies hand
And now they'll cancel their Christmas plans
And sit all alone in their pretty home
That's never seemed seems so dark and cold
and it doesn't really matter what they wanted to be
Just that they woulda been somebodys
How could you take a somebody?
I don't want to think about
what her mommas thinkin now
and she's sitting alone in that house wondering
Whats she supposed to do with the empty room
And the teddy bears
That her daughter loved
And the ginat bear hugs
She'll never get again
Oh he coulda been a fireman
Saving people's live
But he took his before he got to try
She'd be a poet
Writing bout how shes loved her life
She could have worn a blue dress at her highschool prom
Than a white one for the wedding gown
And her momma woulda said
Your so beautiful baby
Oh they coulda been somebodys
And tonight
26* new pairs of wings are flying
and 20 are much to small to
fly on such a cold night
she coulda been laying down
in her little bed
thanking god for the great day she had
but instead she'll lay
In a much different place
they coulda been 21
or 35
and living out beautiful lives
in a photo album
spanning 80 years
but that was taken
and replaced by tears
and in a year or two
the pain is less
but they still won't have their baby back
and out of all the things in the world
I don't understand
Why you'd take a somebody
26* angel wings
20 small and clean
26 torn-out dreams
20 suppsed to be's
