How do I say goodbye?

Daddy how do I say goodbye?

I heard the news,

And I broke down crying,

I asked mommy,

Why mommy why,

She says I do not know why,

And with her hand,

She wipes my tiers away,

Daddy how do I say goodbye?

Daddy I need to ask,

Why was it your time to go?

I know you are flying high,

Up into the clouds,

Pain free,

Yes daddy I knew you were in pain,

Your heart was broken,

And you did not know which way to go,

But daddy I love you so,

Why was it your time to go?

Daddy will you watch over me up there in heaven?

And keep me warm and safe,

Wipe my tiers away when I am sad,

Daddy how do I say goodbye?

One more thing before I let you go,

When it is my time to go,

Will you meet me at heavens door,

With my big brother Shawn,

And say hello,

And I love you so,

Daddy I love you so,

But for now its time to go,

Daddy how do I say goodbye.
