Tragic
Tragic…
We mourn your loss we’ve lost your love
A star so bright that now shines above us
No earthly glow remains yet still we know
You’ll follow with us wherever we go
Behind your smile and the gleam in your eye
How could we know all you felt inside
The inner pain and emptiness which we now feel
There is no escaping that which is real
We watched as you grew from child to man
Watched as your father and mother let go of your hand
We watched as you conquered those childhood fears
Watched as your focus became crystal clear
Your family and friends could see it in your eyes
How you lived everyday and how you loved your life
So many were touched by the love in your heart
And now we carry that with us though we’re torn apart
It’s tragic to think, it’s tragic to feel
Still so hard to believe any of this is real
The words that I’ve found within me can barely explain
The feelings I have for your family, our family in pain…
