In my heart you'll stay

People always say,
Things happen for a reason.
But I never figured out why
That it was you god had chosen.

That morning I got the phone call
I didn't believe it at first
But when it sank in
My insides started to burst.

Crying and crying
The tears kept rolling down
I can't even picture
Life with you not around.

You always made me laugh
Putting a smile on my face
Now I walk around
In my life is an empty space.

You always seemed to be the joker
A person with no worries
Now when I think about you
I only have the best memories.

The way you were taken
Life seems so unfair
But as people kept on telling me
I guess god needed you more up there.

It really makes me sad
That we never gave a proper goodbye
But I know you are looking down on me
Whenever I look to the sky.

It's been so long since you've been gone
And it only seems like yesterday
Because in my heart you'll stay.
