"What Brings Life Also Kills" lyrics

Dear, I'm writing this for you
As I sit here, in my sorrows
Dear, I'm writing this for you
As I contemplate tomorrow
Why did it end so soon?
They say just be thankful for the time that you had
But it's hard to be thankful
When what's dead is the only good that you ever had

But I know there's somethin' in these hills
And I know what brings life also kills
So hold on and love strong
Even when the one you love is gone
And remember now what you didn't know then
And how you wish you could take it all back
'Cause you're gonna miss her
And she's gonna miss you too

And dear, I'm writin' this for you
As I walk down our old favorite street
You always loved the winter time
The coats, the scarfs, the leaves and the trees
I swear I still smell your perfume
As I walk by our old favorite place to eat
And I wonder if the pain will subside
Or will my knees forever be this weak?

And I know there's somethin' in these hills
And I know what brings life also kills
So hold on and love strong
Even when the one you love is gone
And remember now what you didn't know then
And how you wish you could take it all back
'Cause you're gonna miss her
And she's gonna miss you

And you're gonna miss her
And she's gonna miss you too
