The Way Things Were
The Way Things Were
If I could talk to you just one more time
It would be a conversation like no other
I would tell you how much we miss you
You were a son, a dad and a brother!
I've been thinking about you so often
Thinking about the way things use to be
The time that we spent together
Catching lightning bugs and climbing trees!
Just thinking alot about your boyhood
The special times you brought me joy
Picking all my flowers from the
top
I always knew you'd be a sweet boy!
I enjoyed your company and wish it could've lasted
Because you mean so much to me
But I knew one day I'd have to let you go
And go to your home where you'd be set free!
Oh the tears I used to cry on my pillow
I didn't know it would last so long
But I couldn't give up, I had to carry on
Inside I knew that I was strong!
God gave me the strength to travel this journey
He's been by my side the whole way
He tells me I'll see my son
And oh what a glorious day!
