Could you write it with no regrets?

This a deep song.  It's based on a true story.  I spent alot of summers in the hills about 40 Miles away from where this occurred.  My Grandpa worked in the coal mines.

The Sago Mine Disaster was a coal mine explosion on January 2nd, 2006.  The Sago Mine is located in Sago, West Virginia (near Buckhannon).  The blast and aftermath trapped 13 miners for 2 days.  There was only one survivor, Randal L. McCloy, Jr.

WHAT WOULD YOU SAY
Trailer Choir


what if the moment came and
you knew your life was down to minutes
lighters flame was all you had to see
and you found a pen and torn up piece of paper
and a note was all you could leave

13 men fell trapped in a mine in West Virginia,
only one made it out alive
but there love lives on in the words
I can not wait to see you on the other side

what would you say(x2)
(CHORUS)
in the lines on a page from the life that you made
could you write it with no regrets
would you know in yourself you gave somebody else
all the love that you had inside
right down to your last prayer

would you tell your momma thank you for the way you love me
daddy don’t cry everything’s gonna be ok
would you tell your little boy that
you’ll be watching him from up in heaven,
you’ll never miss one game

what would you say(x2)
(CHORUS)
in the lines on a page from the life that you made
could you write it with no regrets
would you know in yourself you gave somebody else
all the love that you had inside
right down to your last prayer

what would you say

(CHORUS)
in the lines on a page from the life that you made
could you write it with no regrets
would you know in yourself you gave somebody else
all the love that you had inside
right down to your last prayer

what if the moment came and
you knew your life was down to minutes
