Cold December
It was cold the day you left us
The chill in the air still remains
Why did you have to leave us on that cold December day?
Your fight was brave, your determination strong,
But you just kept fighting, kept moving on
I will fight till the end, you said
And then you were gone
Some nights when I’m all alone
I think about all the things we have done
I think about all the times that we had
I think about all the times I had with my dad
I can’t wait to see you again
Then we can go fishing. We can talk about things we used to
About life and love and how we made it through.
I will get by, I’ll be okay
But I miss you dad
And I look forward to the day
I’ll meet you on the other side, my friend
Until we meet again.
