8:45

Not sure why but this song has been a favorite since I discovered it about a month ago. It's a pretty sad song if you read the lyrics but at the same time I really like it. I guess I can relate in a way? Except this song is about the singers Grandmother who died. I dunno..reminds me when my grandfather died and in his last moments I wasn't even allowed to see him or talk to him or anything. To be honest when he died I wasn't too emotional, I was just kinda..eh..about the whole thing. I guess I was expecting it. But it all eventually caught up to me and every now and then I think about it and the good times we had fishing, working in the shop, chatting and just doing whatever. I guess I just don't know how to express my emotions very well haha. I'm not really the type of person that shows sadness or I guess wants to. Just thought I'd share this song with English lyrics included.



[VERSE 1]
I should've done well while she was here, I should have said it while she could hear
A morning that was no different from any other day
I could already feel the sound of the bell waking me up
It’s already too late to rewind the time
One last cry, Oh! Please god try,
Please don’t let her die on me I know it’s a lie
You said to wait and you’d give me happiness
You said to wait until I stand at the top of the summit
Please hold back a little bit, leave her in this world
God please just this once pretend you didn’t see it and close your eyes
It’s gotta be a mistake, God isn’t perfect either
God’s trying to take the most precious thing in this world

[CHORUS]
8:45, she’s going to heaven
To a tranquil world where only goodness exists
It was 8:45, she’s going to heaven
If you can hear my voice Know that I love you
8:45, she’s going to heaven
To a tranquil world where only goodness exists
It was 8:45, she’s going to heaven
If you can hear my voice Know that I love you

[VERSE 2]
I should have done well while she was here, I should have shouted it while she could hear
How much I love her
I tightly hold your hand without a response
Hoping that you can hear me if I yell loudly I shout
Please get up and open your eyes
One last cry, let me say goodbye,
Please don't let her die on me I know it’s a lie
Even if the world hates me I’m still your best
Regardless of what anyone says you don’t lay the blame upon me
Your unconditional love
Creates miracles and more miracles
After God the most perfect perfect beauty
The most beautifulist thing in the world,
the most precious thing in the universe my love

[CHORUS]
8:45, she’s going to heaven
To a tranquil world where only goodness exists
It was 8:45, she’s going to heaven
If you can hear my voice Know that I love you
8:45, she’s going to heaven
To a tranquil world where only goodness exists
It was 8:45, she’s going to heaven
If you can hear my voice Know that I love you

[VERSE 3]
Where are you going without saying a final word
Although I breathe my chest is only filled with pain
Even when I sigh only pain is left
In this empty world you don’t see me
But I try to smile, seeing myself so sad
Because she might be sad too
I promise I’ll never forget you
Now I’ll let go of your hand

[CHORUS]
8:45, she’s going to heaven
To a tranquil world where only goodness exists
It was 8:45, she’s going to heaven
If you can hear my voice Know that I love you
8:45, she’s going to heaven
To a tranquil world where only goodness exists
It was 8:45, she’s going to heaven
If you can hear my voice Know that I love you

[OUTRO]
To heaven... To a tranquil world...
To heaven... To a tranquil world... To a tranquil world...
Now she's back up in heaven again
I know you're up in heaven

To all who have lost a loved one
If you hear my voice Know that I love you...
Know that I love you...
