"a cure for cancer" lyrics

One day they'll find a cure for cancer
I'll see it on the news
Crowds are cheering in the street
Patients in hospital rooms
Know the first thing they'll do
David takes a trip to see his daughter
And there's grandkids that Denise is gonna hold
Myles is going back on tour with a band next year, but I wonder do they know?

That I will think of you and all of the things we'll never get to do
'Cause a cure can't bring back the sound of your voice or the years I lost without you
Oh, the years have been so cruel

For every prayer that went unanswered
For every battle lost, every song sang at a funeral
Mother Mary couldn't stop
I need an answer from God, why?
Ali never got to go to big school
Haley never got to see her kids grow old
I'm trying on wedding dresses without you here
But I really hope you know

That I will think of you and all of the things we'll never get to do
'Cause a cure can't bring back the sound of your voice or the years I lost without you
Oh, the years have been so cruel

Cruel
Oh, the years have been so cruel
They've been cruel, cruel
Oh, the years I lost without you

Is there a cure for this pain?
Can they put the blood back in your veins?
Is there a cure for this pain?
Can they tell me I'll see you again?
