I remember way back when,
I was a young little girl.
I remember how i looked up
to you; my hero.
Fishing at the lake.
You singing to me,
and carrying me off
to bed.
I remember your gentle touch
caressing my innocent head.
I know I'm probably not,
what you wanted me to be.
I'm not a little girl anymore,
But i hope somewhere inside of you,
you can still love me.
I knew that day, that soon nothing
would be the same.
Although i understand,
it's still hard to believe.
The way you can just
up and leave me and your family.
And although sometimes i try
to forget you, I can't
let go.
I wish that you'd hear me,
looking for any kind of sign.
I wish that you'd wake up
and let me kiss you goodbye.
I know it wasn't fake,
And you're somewhere
i cant bring you back.
Oh it's the only thing
that could take my smile away
and make me kinda sad.
You won't be there for my
graduation, you won't be there for
my wedding.You're not here to
sing "Tuesday's gone" and turn it
up loud.You won't be there
in person, but you'll remain in my heart.
I could ask you to wait for me in heaven
but I'm not sure. That you can wait that
long at heaven's speechless doors.
So with all these words said,
i know there's nothing i can do
I'll live another day,
I'll live another night.
I'll live my life the best I can
without you by my side..
