To Be With You
Tear drops fell like rain that day,
Listening to what he had to say.
My heart ached,i could feel the pain,
It was more than I can take.
It's flying through my head,
The words he said.
The day I die,
Please don't cry.
Wipe your eyes,
I'll be looking at you from the deep blue skies.
I'll be watching with a smile,
So babygirl look up for a while.
If I have to,
I'll become the air for you.
I'll be with you till your last breath,
So don't give up just yet.
Everyday I look up at the sky,
Remembering what you say.
But daddy when I snap back to reality,
You're not here with me.
I can't help but live my life in regret,
I didn't want to say goodbye just yet.
If I had a second chance,
I'll take back the cruel words I said.
I'll listen to every lecture,
You gave me about the future.
Instead of going out and lime,
With you I would of spent my time.
If I knew,
You were about to leave to.
If I had a second chance,
I would have asked back for you,
When I was three,
Mommy left me.
In the neighborhood where all the parents stood,
Mommy was not here but you've always been there.
If I had a second chance,
I wouldn't have thrown the blame on you.
I just want you to know I don't blame you no more,
And if I really had a second chance you're the one I would ask for.
