We raced down once before
We laughed and played on sunny days, and the rain would keep us on Grandmas porch
Well, Grandmas gone, and mom is too, but here and now, I've still got you
And on the night the sirens cried, I never got to say goodbye
But When they told me she's not coming back, my world went dim but you brought me back
I held your hand as we raced through the forrest of our youth
Well, now we're older different, it's true
But late at night I think of you
I can't help but shed the tears
As I recall the earlier years
The way we laughed as the dogs would play
and the beautiful songs that Mother sang
And even as I've grown to this
It is you I truly miss
I miss the days of warmth and play
And I remember my brothers loving ways
I remember the puppies that have grown and faded
I remeber how you told me that day,
That if anything, you would never forget me
And even with this reassurance
I'd give anything to go back
to see our mother one last time
to have the chance to say goodbye
to sit with nana on the front porch swing
And listen as Grandpa swang and sang
with my brother beside me,
Laughing with joy
A face that I simply can't forget
and I time in which I wish I lived
I remember the day that daddy died
And all the people that I watched cry
I didn't understand, not at that time
The reason for the tears in their eyes
but when we went home and he wasn't there
I cried on your shoulder, because you were always there
And I remember the night that Granpa left us
And how we sat silently as grandma sighed
And we all knew that he wasn't coming home that evening
But even so, Mommy kept singing
She sang us to bed, then slept as she cried
Then I understood, the pain inside
Grandma left us, and oh, how I cried,
But even through that, you stood by my side.
And I recall the pain of mommas death
And I recall the sadness on Benny's breath
He didn't stay long, said he was too old to cry
But you stood by my side as I wept, and you tucked me in that night,
Just as momma would've done
And although it is small, and wasteful of thought
I remember your words,
and how it felt
When we were young
and all alone
Yet forbidded to see one another
through fake family will
As we sat in the sun of our favorite spot
You looked at me, in pain, distraut
I knew that it was the last time
That I'd have the chance to spend with you in the morning sunshine
And as you held me as I cried, because I couldn't stand another good-bye
You promised to stay with me, until I died
No matter what, We'd always be friends
And here,
And now, I'm standing there again.
