Goodbye My Old Friend

you were there the day I was born you sewed my clothes and spanked me when I needed it I wasn' t ready but you said it's ok your only a phone call away so I moved away thinking it would be ok then I got the call that you past away I'm mad as he++ that much you can tell I want to ask why you didn't say goodbye was it because you didn't want me to cry I'm going home but you will be gone I think you went on to make a home with a room just for me you know it wouldn't be long before I come along I didn't know I had brain cancer at the time you left me I sit here and cry and hope it will not be long before I can come home and join you again in heaven and sit by the fire then I know that is where I belong
