Lyrics "Beat You There" by Will Dempsey

I don't know why God always takes the good ones first

And man, I've tried to be strong and carry on, but damn, this hurts

And I just wish that I could talk to you again somehow, someway

Even if it's for a moment, so I can hear you say

Don't cry for me, I'm alright

I'm better than you know

And this life can be a short ride

So don't waste in on sorrow

And just hold on to those moments

And the memories we shared

We're both headed for the same place anyway

I just beat you there

I know they say, "Just give it a little time, you'll be okay"

That might be true, but it don't really help me today

And we ain't supposed to question the man upstairs

There's just so much I don't understand, it just don't seem fair

Don't cry for me, I'm alright

I'm better than you know

And this life can be a short ride

So don't waste it on sorrow

And just hold on those moments

And the memories we shared

We're both headed for the same place anyway

I just beat you there

And as each day goes by, I get a little bit stronger

But that don't stop me from wishing you were here a little bit longer

Whoa, oh, oh

So I'm gonna smile when I think of you

Like I know you'd want me to

And I know you're watching over me in everything I do

And all those things I never got to say

Well, I'll send 'em with this prayer

Then look up, wipe my tears and raise my beer, mm

And I'll see you there

And I'll see you there

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
