I dragged your cross through the sand as I
Carried your broken body in my hands
Left myself face down on the ground
To keep your sky from falling down
This is the very best thing that could have happened to me.
Hands on the wheel I drove the miles
And returned each disappointment with a smile
I shut it up because I thought I should
And the pain that I endured would prove me good
This is the very best thing that could have happened to me.
