"Hurts Like Hell" lyrics

My life changed forever the day that your chest gave out behind the wheel
My father was always a man of steel, but had a human heart that couldn't heal

When I open my eyes
I can't trust myself

Can you hold on tonight?
It breaks my heart to let you go
In my dreams you'll never die
I'll keep you alive, keep you alive
(I will find you)
'Cause in my dreams you'll never die
(I will find you)
Keep you alive, keep you alive

How can I move forward when my heart has grown so cold?
You set the stage, set the pace, embraced all the pain
Yet, I'm unfolding backward on my own
Left in a world forced to grow old alone

You were there all my life
(And now I'm living without)
And now when I open my eyes
I can't trust myself

Can you hold on tonight?
It breaks my heart to let you go
In my dreams you'll never die
I'll keep you alive, keep you alive
(I will find you)
'Cause in my dreams you'll never die
(I will find you)
Keep you alive, keep you alive

Did God make a mistake the day he took you away?
Or did God make you complete by taking a piece of me?

Can you hold on tonight?
It breaks my heart to let you go
In my dreams you'll never die
You live on in my memory

As a memory
As a memory

Can you hold on tonight?
Cause in my dreams you'll never die
Can you hold on tonight?
I'll keep you alive, keep you alive
...
