(Tim Johnson)      On an icy road one night   A young man loses his life   They marked the shoulder with a cross   An' his family gathers round   On a piece of Hallowed ground   Their hearts are heavy with their loss   As the tears fall from their eyes   There's one who'll always sympathise.      God only cries for the living   'Cause it's the living that are left to carry on   An' all the angels up in Heaven   They're not grieving because they're gone   There's a smile on their faces   'Cause they're in a better place than, mmm, they've ever known   God only cries for the living   'Cause it's the living that are so far from home.      It still makes me sad   When I think of my Grand-dad   I miss him each and every day   But I know the time will come   When my own grandson   Will wonders why I went away   Maybe we're not meant to understand   Till we meet up in the Promised Land.      God only cries for the living   'Cause it's the living that are left to carry on   And all the angels up in Heaven   They're not grieving because they're gone   There's a smile on their faces   'Cause they're in a better place than, oh, they've ever known   God only cries for the living   'Cause it's the living that are so far from home   Yeah, we're so far from home, Mmmm, Mmmm...
