The world has taken me from you
Lured me away by the beauty of a dream
But I am standing here now to search no more
Cuz you first loved me

Your memory dimmed in the distance
But there was always the voice you taught to sing
Calling me home to my heart still belongs
To where you first loved me

Angels have stood, tirelessly by my side
But now they're yours and I can feel them fly
In the stillness of my silent prayer
I will place you in their care tonight, tonight

And I will scatter the roses
Unto the snow where forever you will sleep
And you will know why I brought them here to you
Cuz you first loved...
Cuz you first loved me
And I am standing here now, in grateful tears
Cuz you loved me, first loved me
