Gone
As I open my eyes to the light of the new day
Another long night is through.
These days my life seems so scattered and
all of my thoughts are of you.
I reminisce of your childhood,
And the day you took your first breath,
you always had so much love to give
Even after your death.
I see the signs you send me each day
And am grateful for them all
I know that you are so very close, but
I can't see you at all.
Son, You are my guardian angel now,
And You will watch over me
It's not how I would choose it
But it's how it's gotta be.
Son, You are with our ancestors now,
Looking down from Heaven above.
Watching over all of us and
sending so much love.
You are with momma and my daddy,
My brothers and sisters too
My granny, aunts and uncles
will all be there with you
Give them all a hug from me and
send them all my love
Until the day that I see you again
in heaven up above.
