Dear Lord
Dear Lord my heart has finally broke,
My tears ran dry, my throat quite hoarse
When I look to the skies I see nothing
When I close my eyes, I cry
While I dream at night I see his face
But when morning comes it’s all erased
Vanished, in one swift moment
Gone, never to be seen again
Things I never told him
Things he may not have said
His words choked in his throat
My heart just began to sink
Dear Lord why did you put him through pain
Why did he have to suffer?
In his last moment I looked at him
And he could not look back
His eyes full of sadness
For the ones he’d leave behind
Dear Lord why did you break me?
Why am I still in tears?
The man I loved, you took him
The father I’ve known gone
I think of him more than ever
I think of him and its wrong
Dear Lord why did you take him?
Why am I here alone?
Then you whisper in my ear
That daddy wasn’t gone
He was there when I cried
He was there in the night
He watches over me and was my light
When I closed my eyes
He rubbed my head
When I felt all alone
He always said
“I love you sweetheart”
“I am never gone”
“God just wanted me”
“To help someone”
