D-DU-UDU
I held your ancient hand
I flashed a toothy grin
And Ive never cried
Like I saw you cry
When you told me
That you knew youd die
If you went outside
And it was colder than sixty five.
And Im just happy I can fill your life
Fill this cluttered house
With laughter again.
Its been a long long time
Since your daughter died
And Im sorry
I dreamed of suicide
It wasnt right.
I know it makes you sad
To think you may never see
Summer again
And I would like to say
There is a better place
After this life.
Well Im sorry, we only get one try.
