Dad


Dad

For The Husband, the Father, the Grandfather
------------------------------------------------
Where have you gone?
It seems so far,
Yet I see your face in every star.
Where are you now?
I wish I knew,
You don't know what I would do,
To hear you laugh and see you smile,
Where you are seems miles and miles.
They say you've gone, gone away,
You've gone to find a brighter day.
They say you've died,
And everyone cried.
But I say they're wrong,
You're not really gone.
For I see your face in every star,
I know you haven't gone that far.
I hear your voice in the winds breath,
I know you haven't been taken by death.
You're all around us and in our dreams,
Always in our thoughts it seems.
And though we are so far apart,
You are always in our hearts.
Your memory will live each day,
And we'll keep you alive this way,
For never will your memory die,
And no more tears will we cry,
We won't stop loving you,
No, Never,
And so this way,
You will live forever............
