A song about my father's passing
So many things left unsaid and we don't have forever.
To say these words, it's better late than never.
I don't want this moment to slip away.
We only have today.

If you go, promise me that when we meet again,
You'll still be the one i can depend on.
You're alive in my heart even when you're gone.

Today I'm gonna try my best,
To get these words off of my chest,
And pray to God that you won't leave me here.
Alone without my father is what I fear.

So far away, but you're right next to me,
I can barely speak.
I can feel you here but can't hear you breathe.
I slowly start to feel you fade away,
And we only had today

Today I'm gonna try my best,
To get these words off of my chest,
And pray to God that you won't leave me here.
Alone without my father is what I fear.

If you're listening, please let me know.
I need a reason to hold on, not to let go,
And tell me if you're anywhere near,
Cause in my heart I know that you're still here.

Today I'm gonna try my best,
To get these words off of my chest,
And pray to God that you won't leave me here.
Alone without my father is what I fear.
