For Esther


This song is to be sung to the tune of "If I Could" from The Final Battle. 

For Esther

If I could speak to you one more time
I’d give you one last laugh
A joke or two to help you through
On NerdFighter’s behalf’s 

If I could speak to you one more time
I’d ask to be your friend
A friendship of unrequited love
Brought to life in a smile

You are not alone, Esther.
You’ve touched all of our heart, Esther.
Although it may seem scary
You’re not really gone
You live on in us, Esther.
You’ll always be inside, Esther
And though the night we’ll carry you
Beyond the veil

If I could speak to you one more time
I’d say that you were brave
A young girl like you does not deserve to have
An everlasting fight

If I could speak to you one more time
I’d tell you it’s okay
I’ll be there ‘till the end, my chosen friend
I’ll follow you into the fray

You are not alone, Esther.
You’ve touched all of our heart, Esther.
Although it may seem scary
You’re not really gone
You live on in us, Esther.
You’ll always be inside, Esther
And though the night we’ll carry you
Beyond!

If I could speak to you one more time
I’d say that you never gave up (failed)
Although death may have loomed
The end of life isn’t doom
Your love will prevail

And you are not alone, Esther.
You’ve touched all of our heart, Esther.
Although it may seem scary
We’re all by your side
There through thick and thin, Esther
We know that you fought hard, Esther
Though the night we’ll carry you
Beyond the veil.
