lyrics
December 23rd we got the word that the line between life and death had blurred
They told us that your senses would start slowing down
And that we’d have to get used to you not being around
I didn’t wanna think it true
I thought this wasn’t supposed to happen to people as close to me as you
But this is where we find ourselves
I am fully grown and I have known that sooner or later I’d have to go it alone
You would try to change that if you could, but that’s OK still think you did pretty good
Cuz in my heart you still stand tall
I know that you gave life your all
Now I’m moving fast cuz I don’t wanna languish
The only way I know to distract from the anguish
The only way I’ll grow into a man who can handle it
And I won’t forget your laugh or the way you smiled
I have them too as your first child
I’ll show the world your charm and your style
When you were in pain you loved me all the while
On the other side of your life I gasp for air
I didn’t know what I had to have you there
I hope that I can grow to match your love
Now’s the time to show what we’re made of
On the other side of your life I miss the voice
Telling me I’m your son and I have a choice
No matter what I choose you believe in me
No matter what I might lose I’ve got your memory
