One fateful day he was taken away,
Not to be seen again,
We know who's choice it was,
We had to let go,
but still our hearts were filled with woe

Its been 12 years,
The pains not gone,
He's missed all the same.
But tomorrow is the day God took him away
just a week from my birthday, that fateful day

It was the last time I saw him,
The last hug before I went to school,
That night was the worse,
when mom got the call from the hospital.

I miss your singing,
your playing guitar.
I miss your laugh,
I miss you Dad.

But God took you away,
Along with all your pain,
So I'm glad, yet sad that your gone.

No new memories,
You won't be there to walk me down the aisle
Or be a grandpa
But nevertheless,
Never ever ever forgotten.
