Under That Old House Looking back, we miss the life we lived With the promise of your words and all that you did Dad, we want you to know how much we're missing you And how we are missing what we'll never again do... Under that old house your smile still lives on Your laughter haunts the nights that's forever gone And though we have found every quiet night to cry Still all we can do is sadly close our eyes... Looking back, we miss the life we shared What we wouldn't give to pass by that house and see you sitting there Dad, every day that you are gone we are slowly losing heart Cause with out you everything loses life when we're apart... Under that old house that light still shines in your eyes All our words spoken still remain inside Seven years ago today God wanted you back And in one short moment we lost the will to laugh... Dad, we know we've said it a million times or two But we want you to know we love and miss you... Sauni Sauni :) |

Ahh, Sauni..I understand your feelings so well, but as a Dad, I have to say, to think you had lost the will to laugh, would make me cry bitter tears, for that is not what he would have wished for you..he is always with you, so laugh at these memories of laughter and share with him..very gentle smile |

Logan, thank you for replying. I am sure my dad sees how my family reacts to him being gone, for at times, we just can't help but barely get by. I don't know how to act happy, for him, because in my heart he is everything I want back here on earth. Thanks again. Silly Wawcheo, Thanks Sue for responding. I know you understand my heart and what I am feeling. Sauni Sauni :) |
