Through a Child Eyes
I remember when I was little and sitting on your knee.
of how you use to play your
guitar and sing some songs to me.
As I got older, how I really wanted to learn.
So you sat down beside me and we would take turns.
"You are my sunshine" and "shortnin bread"
was the songs we'd play.
I wished I never had to leave, and we could pick all day.
To me you were so special and that is all I knew.
and you made me think, That I was pretty special too.
As I got older our bond slowly drifted apart.
But you were never far away
I held you in my heart.
When I heard you were sick,
I just knew.
I had to get there one more time
so I came to visit you.
When I saw you I knew, it would be our final good bye.
So I prayed for god to take you, to his home up in the
sky.
With a tear in my eye I said, "you know I love you".
Ever so softy you whispered back "I like to think you do".
You were my sunshine when you were near, and from afar.
I will always remember you now, as my brightest
star!
