Gone

I know you're gone,
You can't come back,
But I just can't let you go.

I miss you so much,
I wish you didn't have to leave us,
But it's time for you to go.

You were hurting and in so much pain,
It was hard for me to believe,
You had to leave the Earth someday,
Why today?

You were my best friend's dad,
My dad too,
I've known you almost all my life,
I guess that ended too.

Promise not to forget you,
Not that I ever could,
Keep you in my memories,
Never to forget who you were.

Forever and always,
The guy to make you laugh until you cry,
Who sings karyoke everynight.

I miss you so much,
I wish you didn't have to leave us,
But it's time for you to go.
