I heard today that you were gone
I had to stop and sing along
The song they played to say goodbye
A song that gave, gave 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
