I Will See You Again
Goodbyes Aren’t Forever
What magic words are there left to say
I can’t seem to tell you goodbye
My heart beats like thunder and the sky looks like rain
But I can’t find the teardrops to cry
How do the sun and the stars find the sky
With the darkness eclipsing the light
How do I continue the rest of my life
With out you here, close by my side
How do I tell you what you meant to my heart
How can I live, with this void
Letting you go, tears my world apart
You were the one that I counted on, Boyd
A father and friend who defended and loved
The giver of all my spare parts
You were the first to teach me, the lesson of love
And forever will be in my heart
***
I love you, dad
