Laughing, Smiling. Talking. L rying.
Thai was all his time was buying
I remember the phone call saying lie didn t make it
I remember the pain and I still can t take it
They said it was just his tune to leave. . -
That's a fact I didn't want to believe
I would do all I could to get his life back.
It's his beautiful smile that we all lack
I miss HIS glowing happv face,
the one that no one can ever replace
I feel so bad. you re probably wondering wiiv
It's just the simple fact that I never said
t Good-bv
His death has left us in such deep sorrow
But we've got to realize there s no promise tor tomorrow
