I stop and listen
I feel you still
I look seeing you in a distance
But you are just in my memory
A tear slides down my face
Feeling this deep pain
I miss your loving embrace
I reach for you but you seem to fade
I close my eyes
My heart aches
Wishing you was by my side
Knowing this was your fate
Holding my head up high
I will always cry
I never got to say goodbye
Before you died
I know in spirit you are with me
But with God above
From the pain and suffering you are free
Forever in peace you will lay
In loving memory of my grandpa Floyd Gage
