Goodbye My Child, Goodbye

Goodbye my child, I am the sinner but God called upon you. 
Your life was so short, the years didn't even tick till two. 

Goodbye my child, as you listening from above to the brass band, 
Your coffin in the ground, me frantically filling your grave with sand!

Goodbye my child, I am crying but have to let you go. 
Your curtain has fallen, it is the end of your "live" show

Goodbye my child, this is the end but also a new start, 
You an angel now, watching over us, our personal guard. 

Goodbye my child, you took my heart with you when you died, 
Goodbye my child, goodbye
