I wrote this for my son who passed away at 14 months.
Today I woke up and you weren't there
I got up and got dressed, I didn't really care
That the sun was shinning and the sky was blue
All I could think about was not being with you

I open my window and I hear the ocean roar
and then it hits me and I fall to the floor
I see your face, your innocent smile
I'd give anything just to hold you awhile

How do i get through another year
of longing to be with you and not having you near?
I'm left alone with my thoughts of dispare
wih no one even knowing, no one to care

I'll carry you with me no matter where I go
and you'll always watch over me this I know
So I pull myself up off the floor
and I carry myself out my bedroom door

To face another day of being blue
To face another day without you
