I remember it like it was yesterday
the day you slipped away
somehow you had a smile on your face
like you knew you where going to a better place
I remember your last words to me:
"be as strong as I know you can be
alway take good care of your sister
and let her know how much I'll miss her,
I know we'll see each other again one day"
then you closed your eyes and faded away
Your life just slipped through my hands
I just stood there without a chance
to let you know just how much
I was going to miss your caring touch
never again will I experience a likewise pain
that will make me feel this far from sane
part of me died when you left
so much cruelty and theft
of a life so great
but my memories of you will never fade
