FOR EVA JOSEPHINE (Sara Swenson)
© 2017 S. Swenson Songs (Revised 2021)
I knew I loved you before I saw your eyes
I never dreamed I’d have to say goodbye
I don’t know why I’m losing you
I don’t know why
Why you’ve been pulled away, I have no real words
I’m bound forever while the world still turns
I don’t know why I’m losing you
I don’t know why
Oh heartbreak
Oh deep ache
Don’t know how to breathe
Don’t know how to see
But I know it hurts
All my good intentions, all my rules
Punches in the air in a fight I didn’t choose
I don’t know why I’m losing you
I don’t know why
Oh heartbreak
Oh deep ache
Don’t know how to breathe
Don’t know how to see
But I know it hurts
Oh heartbreak
Oh deep ache
Don’t know how to breathe
Don’t know how to see
But I know it hurts
How do I hold on
How can I be strong
How is this the end?
I know there are reasons
I know there are seasons
But you were mine for a time
And now …
Oh heartbreak
Oh deep ache
Don’t know how to breathe
Don’t know how to see
But I know it hurts
Oh heartbreak
Oh deep ache
Don’t know how to breathe
Don’t know how to see
But I know it hurts
It hurts
It hurts
It hurts
It hurts
It hurts
It hurts
I don’t know why I’m losing you
I don’t know why
