i heard today that you were gone. i had to stop and sing along. the song they played to say goodbye. a song they gave give me back life. [chorus]. you'll never fade. the words you gave. my life you saved. your name was layne. and on that day a child was born. to someone who you helped along. and helped see through his darkest times. because of you this child she is mine. [chorus]. [bridge]. the words you said you made me feel like they were all for me. the words you said they will always be a part of me. the words you said you made me feel like i was not alone. the words you said you gave me all the strength to carry on. [chorus (altered)]. so to me you'll never fade. your life you gave. my life you saved. your name was layne.
