Tony Benda - 6:35 Lyrics

Six Thirty-Five
Opened your eyes
Took a deep breath for the very first time
We welcomed new life
Watched as you cried
Mom and dad holding you close in the night

You had the world at your fingertips
But for now they're just holding mine
At 6:35

New baby brother
You wanna be everything he wants to be
A love like no other
Playing your games with him wholeheartedly

We sang Baby Shark
Danced in the dark
Ran around chasing the dogs in the yard
Fun in the sand
Dirt on your hands
Holding the memories close to our hearts

With the world at your fingertips
Didn't know there was little time
And the news hit hard
The day doctors found what's inside

Our lives were forever changed
The best and the worst spinning 'round in our minds
We hoped and we prayed
You kept beating the odds every time
Good news with the bad
Gave it everything they had
Doing cancer's little dance
Thought there might've been a chance that you won
That you won

Somehow it wouldn't last
For all good things must pass

Slipping through our fingertips
Saw you fading away
We were by your side
And loved you everyday
Watched you take your last breath
And run to the arms of Christ
At 6:35
