Here's To You 3m 51s

The sun was setting softly on that quiet, somber day

When they came with no delay to tell me you had passed away

Your journey here had ended, and your soul had taken flight

Leaving echoes in the silence, shadows in the fading light

You've left us way too soon, the world feels cold and strange

Even now I feel this emptiness, a void that nothing can change

But I will keep these memories close to my chest

Forever cherish them, for they are truly the best

Now when I see your chair, empty, cold and alone

I recall your endless laughter that used to fill our home

In the hardest times, your place was my retreat

A sanctuary warm and safe, where my weary heart could beat

I never got the chance to say goodbye, it haunts me every day

So many questions about your life, now words I cannot say

I wonder about the stories and the secrets of your past

Now they're locked away forever, memories that couldn't last

You've left us way too soon, the tears are hard to hide

Even now I feel this emptiness, a hollow deep inside

But I will keep these memories close to my chest

Forever cherish them, for they are truly the best

When I visit all the places where you once used to be

I still expect to find you there, smiling back at me

Your presence lingers in the air, a whisper in the breeze

A fleeting glimpse, a shadow there among the rustling trees

Though you feared the final journey, I know you're free at last

Your pain has turned to peace now, your worries in the past

We wish you all the best in realms beyond our sight

Your spirit shines upon us, a guiding, gentle light

You've left us way too soon, but strength we find within

Even now I feel this emptiness, yet healing can begin

I miss you

Why did you have to go?
