How do you tell a child that someone has died
|
Innocent visions of youth are only a lie
|
I tried tell and lord knows I tried
|
But any way you break it you'll just make em cry
|
|
Little Tommy, I have bad news for you today
|
The teacher you loved Mr. Peterson
|
Has sadly passed away
|
He was killed by a motorist in a drunken act of rage
|
Let em live on in your heart
|
Now we must turn the page
|
|
Little Suzy, your father has passed on
|
His love for you was relentless as it was strong
|
If only he knew he'd be gone so soon
|
He would have tried and spent more time
|
But he's on God's clock, not yours and mine
|
Keep him in your heart each and every day
|
And there he will live on and never fade away
|
