lyrics

At a Loss
Carolyn Arends

I don’t have a doubt that you’re in heaven
But how on earth am I supposed to say goodbye?
You know that you could make me mad
Sure as you could make me laugh
But I never dreamed how hard you’d make me cry

And I am at a loss
For words to say, prayers to pray
Any clue what to do next
I am at a loss
I never planned on losing you like this

You taught me so much about living
And so I guess it makes some kind of sense
That you would be the one to leave
And teach my broken heart to grieve
And to try to find some hope in even death

Still I am at a loss
For words to say, prayers to pray
Any clue what to do next
I am at a loss
I never planned on losing you like this

I know the Jesus you believed in
Cried like the this the night He lost a friend
So if the two of you are talking it over
Could you find a little extra strength to send me?

Cause I am at a loss
For words to say, prayers to pray
Any clue what to do next
I am at a loss
I never planned on losing you like this
