Lee's Song

Why did you have to go? We all wanted you to stay I still can’t believe That was your price to pay We were laughing when you left Now we’re crying by your bed And I just cannot deal With your voice inside my head ‘Cause you’re sitting on the couch Baseball cap upon your head A guitar in your lap Nutshell coming from your hands And we were singing out And you were playing on And we’ll still play this song Until you get back home You are hero in my eyes Even to this night The thought that you are gone Still brings tears to my eyes We never can forget you This pain will always be They say it will get easier But I’m still waiting We miss you more each day And the nights we cannot bear My only solace is You must be so happy there We were laughing when you left Then we were crying by your bed And I still cannot deal With your voice inside my head ‘Cause you’re sitting on the couch Baseball cap upon your head A guitar in your lap Nutshell coming from your hands And we were singing out And you were playing on And we’ll still play this song Until you get back home
