Текст Kree Harrison – Wanted It That Way

Left all the flowers in the living room
Shook every hand I didn’t know
Stacked all the cards I read to you when you get alone
I made your bed, hung your favorite dress

Never written down in a will, on a page
I do my best to try and keep you around this place
Cause I know, you would’ve wanted it that way

Your oldest boy gave his girl your ring
They set a wedding date in June
Your daughter named her brown-eyed baby after you
I call my youngest brother once a day
And you would be so proud to know
He brings you yellow roses every time he’s home

Never written down in a will, on a page
We do our best to try and keep you around this place
Cause we know, you would’ve wanted it that way

I found a letter in your dresser drawer
With my name and no address
Waiting for me and a birthday card that you never sent
You spoke to me like you never have
The words you held back all this time
Were the ones you could never say while you were alive

Why did I have to hear you were proud of me this way?
I’m gonna carry this letter around so you’re here everyday
Cause I know, yes I know, you would’ve wanted it that way
Wanted it that way, you
