Missing You Always
You never said I'm leaving
You never said Goodbye,
You were gone before we knew
And only God knows why.
In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still,
In my heart I hold a place
That only you can fill.
It broke my heart to lose you
But you didn't go alone
A part of me went with you,
The day God took you home.
