Oh how life can hurt us so,
if only there was a way to know
Just what lie around the bend
The broken hearts we could try to mend
Dad I'm sorry, I was blind
I don't know what was on my mind
Guess I thought God would see us through
And you would get better, just like Boo
Dad you weren't suppose to die
Now everyday I think of you and cry
I pray for a way to tell you I love you
And ask for your forgiveness too
But you are in Heaven, and I am here
And I guess I'll keep living with the fear
That you passed away hating me
Because I was dumb and didn't see
That God could close his eyes,and take your life
Away from your children and your wife
Now I don't know what I'm going to do
For everyday I'm still missing you
