To My Son Robert

Daddy’s really sorry He never got the chance to say hello And daddy’s so very sorry He never got the chance to say goodbye But there are some things I need to let you know Before I let you go off To your home with God in the sky Even though I never knew you I want you to know That I am so proud And I love you so The best son any man Could ever ask God for Fulfilled all my dreams And so much more Cuz I’m sure you were the greatest At all that you did And you were that special one That magical kid Who brought joy and happiness To everyone you’d meet With just your sweet smile As you walked down the street And I remember playing ball With you in the park And rushing to get home After it’s dark Swimming in the pool Having so much fun And eating lots of ice cream And racing back home When we we’re done And though these little things Never really happened it’s true They happened for me In my heart And I hope they did for you too We can share these memories Till the time ends And we meet in heaven And can share them again You were the love of my life The joy in my heart I went to every practice and game Just loving playing a part And I was so proud When you did the play at school And when you took up music I completely lost my cool Ah the memories are fading now Just like you gone way too soon But I will cherish them forever And think of them when I think of you And though these little things Never really happened it’s true They happened for me In my heart And I hope they for you too We can share these memories Till the time ends And we meet in heaven And can share them again Daddy’s really sorry He never got the chance to say hello And daddy’s so very sorry He never got the chance to say goodbye But there are some things I wanna make sure that you know Before I let you go off To your home with God in the sky
