I still dream of you,

Deep into the night of the old and blue,

All the times we promised to never let the other down,

To share in the knowledge that we found,

The dreams of distant meetings,

The sounds of familiar greetings,

When I needed you you were there,

Our hardships we could always share,

So close were we that I called you Dad,

You were the closest thing to it I’ve had,

You never even had a chance,

I lost you in a forgotten glance,

I never even got to say goodbye,

My dreams always seem to get wry,

Its just one big cruel joke,

And my heart builds hope,

Then daylight scores my eyes,

And I know you’re looking down at me from sunny skies.
