If you could come back, for just one day
would you sit and talk to me,
would you start to pray?
Had I known it would be your last,
I would've stayed much longer.
Had I known you'd be gone.
I'd wished to be much stronger.
You held our family together.
The glue that never let us part.
Had we been a body
You'd have been the heart.
Since your leaving, the glue has melted.
The family goes each it's own way.
Oh what I would give, to speak to you today.
Maybe some advice to keep us together.
But the sad truth is you're gone forever.
Cancer was the poison, it took you too soon.
I talk to your picture everyday.
Asking for help to be sent my way.
It's hard to believe one person has so much
influence on our lives.
Without you it has all fallen apart.
The body lost it all, when it lost it's heart.
