Five Months
Five months have passed so very fast
I never thought this pain would last.
Never for a moment did I think you?d be gone
Or that I could carry a hurt for so long
As by your side I stood holding your hand
I never thought I?d lose my most important man
Dad my world fell apart that day
?Goodbye? was something you didn?t say
You aren?t here to tell me now
I know I must cope but don?t know how
I wake in the morning and wish to see you face
I close my eyes to sleep and hear your voice
?I love you Maisey Mae?
The words I long to hear you say
Dad I miss you what do I do
I just can?t go on living without you
My life is empty I feel so low
What will become of me I just don?t know?
I try to be strong to hold myself high
But when I?m alone all I do is cry
My heart aches daily the pain is so strong
Oh dad how I wish you weren?t gone
I?d have you phone me one thousand times a day
?Hi Maisey Mae? just to hear you say
Dad I can?t see a day when this pain will be gone
My flame has gone out
Just smouldering embers remain.
My life will now never be the same.
No more laughter at silly things
Not my dads voice when the telephone rings
No goodnight baby speak tomorrow
No more
