You knew me from birth
You held me on earth
You loved me till now
I will love you till forever
You always gave me a smile
It always made it worthwhile
Your laugh I will carry with me always
Until I know I don't have to hold on anymore
Your hugs were always warm
They kept me safe from the storm
I hated to see you cry
And now I have to say goodbye
I don't want to let go
For you have watched me grow
The lord called you home
And took you into his arms
You're in a better place now
I don't have to ask how
Though my heart aches for you
I know you're still there
I don't want to say goodbye
Instead I'm going to say see you later.
