I met God's Will on a halloween night he was dressed as bag of leaves
Aku bertemu dengan Kehendak Tuhan di malam Halloween, dia mengenakan kostum kantong daun

it hid the braces on his legs at first
Kostumnya menutupi penyangga di kakinya pada awalnya

his smile was as bright as the August sun
Senyumnya secerah matahari Agustus

when he looked at me
Saat dia memandangku

as struggled driveway
Sambil berjuang di jalan masuk

it almost made me hurt

he won't do the things that the other kids do

in our neighborhood
Di lingkungan kami

Aku sudah mencari, bertanya-tanya, berpikir

lost and lookin' all my life

We'd watch him when she had to work late

and we'd all laugh like I hadn't laughed
Dan kami semua tertawa seperti aku belum pernah tertawa

since I don't know when
Sejak kapan aku tidak tahu

at dinner he'd ask to pray

His mother said they didn't think he'd live

and she said each day that I have him, well it's just another gift
Dan dia bilang setiap hari aku memilikinya, itu adalah hadiah lainnya

and I never got to tell her, that the boy
Dan aku tidak pernah bisa memberitahunya, bahwa bocah itu

showed me the truth
Menunjukkanku kebenaran
