Well I guess it's safe to say I see my time has come
I hate to make you break, but hey, I'll see you soon enough
I know it's hard and things are rough, but don't be sad my son
Remember back on Christmas day, the day that I lost mom?
You were my support, you were there, I held you close
But now I'm gone so turn to Bridgette, she's the one you need the most
But don't be sad I know you'll think that is impossible
But if you stop to think of all the things that I accomplished you
Wouldn't take it hard, Michael son, I made it far
I went from being nothing then you turned all of our lives around
You turned me to a star, you gave me life and then a car
You got me out the trailer park and then you gave your dad a house
Don't be sad I'm gone 'cause son I'm only moving on
And soon enough I'll see you at the gates, this place is beautiful
Till then I love you all my son, I hope your life is full of happiness and love
I know you strong I'm watching all of you
They say goodbye is forever
But I know its not
They say I'm gone, I'm not
I'm gonna see you soon
Goodbye, farewell
I'm gonna see you soon
Goodbye, farewell
I'm gonna see you soon
I really tried another verse, the purpose was to ease the burn
I feel 'cause dad is gone, I'm mad he's not here and it fucking hurts
I want the pain to stop, I hate this God, it's never gone
I wake up every morning with a knot, I'm so afraid he's not
Around to hear me talk, I reach out and I beg to God
To show a sign or move an object anywhere, just make it drop
I need to know he's not lost in time or stuck in thought
I thought that I could handle loss but not when dad is what I lost
And so I tried to jot my thoughts down on a song just as him
I lost the ones I loved the most and so I tried to represent
Myself as him to help me cope and so I guess I spent
A minute getting words on paper spinning but its tormenting
The storm will slowly pass and time relieves the pain I have
And he will always be the voice that tags me when I'm feeling sad
And if I never have another chance to have a chat
I hope you know you raised a man and damn I'll always love you dad
They say goodbye is forever
But I know its not
They say I'm gone, I'm not
I'm gonna see you soon
Goodbye, farewell
I'm gonna see you soon
Goodbye, farewell
I'm gonna see you soon
How do I live and how do I breathe?
No it's not the end but it's all that I see
Hope that I can follow in your footsteps
Know that we were happy as it could get
'Cause I can see the sky light up now
Doubting that it's you
Searching by myself just to find out
I'm never lost 'cause I got you
They say goodbye is forever
But I know it's not
They say I'm gone, I'm not
I'm gonna see you soon
Goodbye, farewell
I'm gonna see you soon
Goodbye, farewell
I'm gonna see you soon
