It's been a while since you left
I'll never forget that day
There is something on my mind, Dad
Something I didn't get to say
I never got to say goodbye
As you went to touch God's face
I'm thankful for the time we shared
My heart still has an empty space
Your voice still echoes in my mind
Fond memories I'll always hold dear
Even though you left my world
In my heart you're still near
