He's waiting patiently on a hospital bed
 he's waiting for the doctor to come back in
 by then he falls asleep wishing he was
 just as strong as everybody else
 he just wants to live like everybody else

Chorus:
 what if I believed
 what if I prayed
 if I did what it make all this go away
 where did I go wrong
 what didn't I do right
 cuz I don't wanna have to say goodbye
 cuz I still believe

 The doctor takes a breath and he opens the door
 his face said everything they all had feared
 he never thought that life could hurt like this
 so he prayed with all the faith that he had left

Chorus

 In the pouring rain somewhere far away
 there's someone that hurts just like I do and
 In the pouring rain somewhere far away
 there's someone that hurts just like you do
 but I still believe I'm still gonna pray

 I'm gonna thank the Lord for every day
 I'm still holding on I'm still gonna fight
 cuz I don't wanna have to say goodbye
 no I don't wanna have to say goodbye
