WHEN IM GONE
Some say I'm going to fall
but what do they know
never a foe
not even a friend
but I'm here to tell you
that's not just some little girl
at her pitys end
Because when the shame fades
with the forward motion of time
the memories or what kills you
you'll never believe another line
you'll sit there and remember
what now is someone else's
now you'll say
that used to be mine
So go now
never stop you're trying
do whatever it takes
to keep that little boy from crying
he's not going to say I hate you
and though he may be gone
he'll be the one who wakes you
So for every one of my tears
as each one is falling down
every time these wheels of mine
are treading around
I'm thinking of you my Ryder J
I hope this all makes sense one day
so stop looking for me son
you have my spirit
so we've already won
And for you my daughter Cydney J
who has never been said as plain
because you're so much more
than any words can explain
my prayer for you
since the day you were born
I asked God to give you my heart
but the rest of your existence
be twice as much more
and I'm more proud than ever
if ever there was something I've sworn
Ryan J you are the one
yes Ryan my dear son
you became a strength
that took many years
for me to become
there is wisdom taking its time
paving your path
there's patience you carry
that many...
