The grief of losing

When I was just a little girl I thought I knew it all

But as the years have gone by, I've never felt so small

I never knew what life would be without you teaching me

But now I'm lost and am scared but there's no way to flee

Dad I know you'd want me to be happy and I know you'd want me to smile

But losing you has confused my soul and set me back awhile

We were just becoming closer, we were becoming the best of friends

I know we had our disagreements but in the end we made amends

I miss you everyday and cry when I'm alone

I'm lost inside with nowhere to hide, I wish that i had known

Life is different now, I feel guilty to laugh and sing

I know it should'nt be that way but you were my everything

I looked up to you for guidance, for strength, for love, for hope

But in the end you'll always be my best friend and in time I'll learn to cope
