|
I watched you die |
|
Though you had always been there |
|
Since I first came into this world |
|
Outside people smile |
|
I ask - why this deep blue sky? |
|
When you have left this world today |
|
Does it not know when to weep? |
|
|
|
All my life I've looked up to you |
|
A humble old man who always knew |
|
No one can ever be closer to God than you |
|
So who could fill this void |
|
|
|
I still can't believe that you are not around |
|
That your warm voice won't make another sound |
|
Sure I understand, but I never will accept |
|
That you should be gone |
|
|
|
I watched you die |
|
And I have feared this moment |
|
Since I was just a child |
|
So why that sunny sky? |
|
When my beloved grandfather |
|
Lies dead here cold and still? |
