He was so young

He was young

His life had just begun

All of a sudden it was taken away

I didn't even get to say the things I wanted to say

Only if God could see

How he could of turned out to be

Alcohol was the cause

He was wrong and broke the law

He wasn't the only one to pay

I still cry to this day

He would have been 21 this year

Sometimes I envision him in my mind

As clear as I would in a mirror

I only hope he knows

that no matter where in life I go

I love him so much

I only wish I could feel his touch

Only if God could see

How much he meant to me

Why won't the sorrow disappear?

Why can't I stop shedding the tears?

I never told him how much I cared

or how much I enjoyed the things we shared

All of mind is filled with hate

Because I never told him of my love

and now it's too late

Sometimes I feel he's here

I only wish he didn't drink that beer

For he'd be alive today

and I wouldn't think of reasons "Why?" to say
