*an Unexpected Good-Bye*
Why is it terrible things
Happen to the ones we love most
The ones who never complain
Who never brag or boast
A day prepared too soon
A good-bye unexpected to say
He's in all of our thoughts
And in every prayer we pray
Some may question why
And long for words unsaid
But he's gone somewhere special
Walking on ground we've yet to tread
An exceptional individual
Impossible not to love
He's no longer with us
But with the Lord above
