The day of darkness came,
it felt like the longest day of my life,
the sky was Grey, and cold,
i remember,
looking around to see,
for some reason,
no one seemed happy.
the day that i lost you,
the first member of my family gone,
i knew there was much more,
many more day like this to come,
i worry about it all,
how everyone will leave,
go through the doors and leave this world,
leave me alone and cold.
i think upon our love we shared,
in every single way,
i sing the song i sang for you,
on that very day,
a song about how life is hard,
about how you will always be there,
in my heart and in my dreams,
and someday i will join you there,
for now and until forever,
you will be to me,
the happy person,
you always used to be,
the grandfather i always knew,
the one who loved and gave,
the one who made me smile,
and that name for yourself you made,
followed you through to your grave.
now we all think of you,
and love you very much,
always and forever
even if not to touch.
