Years have passed, they flew by,
I don't understand.
Still find myself asking why,
I don't understand.
Here one second and then gone,
I don't understand.
Every day, a new dawn,
I don't understand.

Why did you have to take away,
the only man who cold make me smile?
Why did he have to go so soon,
couldn't you wait a while longer?

With every dawn comes a songbird,
with every day, a new surprise.

There's a long road ahead now,
I must stand.
Have to walk it alone,
I must stand.
You were the only to,
understand.
Gave me hope and reason,
to finally stand.

You may be far away now,
but you're always in my heart.
I know you'll be watching,
from the stars.

I hope I make you smile,
from afar.
