text: Today I walked down our old street
  Past the diner where we’d meet
  Now I dine alone in our old seats
  The cold wind blows right through my bones
  And I feel like I’m getting old
  But I wish I was getting old with you
  I held your hand when we took shelter from the rain
  She laughed as we picked out our children’s names
  White sparrows
  Fell from heaven and carried her away
  Black arrows
  Cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray
  Her clothes hang in the closet still
  The phone sits on the windowsill
  And every time it rings it gives me chills
  My heart just stopped when I was told
  Doctor, doctor, on the phone
  Said my love was never coming home
  I hold your casket gently, walking to the grave
  Dark clouds eclipse, the sun won’t shine again
  White sparrows
  Fell from heaven and carried her away
  Black arrows
  Cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray
  They gave her one more day
  To say the words I couldn’t say
  I’m crying in pain
  Crying in pain
  And I’m not looking for answers
  No, I’m not looking for answers
  But dear God, why did you choose her?
  White sparrows
  Fell from heaven and carried her away
  Black arrows
  Cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray
  They gave her one more day
  To say the words I couldn’t say
  I’m crying in pain
  Crying in pain
  Our love will remain
  I’m crying in pain
