Hardly Knowing You

Eyes that filled up as i heard the news Never occurred to me, of what I could lose Tears fall from my eyes, I can't even see Deep down inside, you are always with me I think about you everyday But there is nothing left for me to say I still don't understand the reason why I have not witnessed the others cry The fact that you are out of pain, is the only thing that keeps me sane Although I'm sad you had to go the thought of you gone keeps me in woe And i prayed to God that he would allow you to stay But the result was, that he took you away And although I hardly got to see your face My prayers now, are that you are in a safe place And the fact that we will always be together Makes my spirit rise, the thought of being with you forever And i thank the Lord for taking you to that place You're my Hero, my Protector, and my Saving Grace (Rest in Peace Grandpa)
