You Were Always There

about

This was written for my Father who passed away.

lyrics

You were always there,
any time I needed you,
at the drop of hat, at moments notice,
you'd be there before I knew,

Nothing could compare,
to the way you'd conquer any hill,
No problem too big, no task too small,
It was all a part of the thrill,

But lately,
I think about the way you could,
drop a joke out of left field,
knock us all dead,

and lately,
I think about the way you would,
Work until your hands were bruised,
and do it again the next day,

How could I let you go?,
How could I let you go?

You were always there,
Like a movie scene,
Nothing would stop you from being the one,
that we all need,

Now I'm scared,
I don't know what to do,
Everything that's great about me,
I learned from you,

But lately,
I wonder what you were thinking,
knowing things we're winding down,
coming to an end,

And lately,
I wonder what you were thinking,
knowing every time you saw me,
could be the last time,

How could I let you go?
How could I let you go?

I'll never understand,
No one could ever know,
You deserved so much more time,
To enjoy the world you build,

I'll never understand,
I don't know how to go on,
But to live my life they you would have wanted,

How could I let you go?
How could I let you go?
How could I let you go?
How could I let you go?

You we're always there,
But now you're not,
The world will never be the same,
didn't matter how hard you fought,

The only way that I can ever make the world see,
Is to be the kind of person you wanted me to be,
