Song For You

So many ways to say I miss you

But I couldn't count no matter how I try

They wouldn't fill the hole you left gaping

Only drive it deeper, farther down inside

I never blame you, never blame you for leaving

You didn't have a choice, nor did I

Struggling with the fact, the fact I'm no longer having

My rock to lean on, a shoulder to cry

Holidays couldn't get much longer

If only those memories could be more real

And I wish I could say, you left me stronger

Lying to myself wont change how I feel

Trying like hell to more forward

Empty bottles seem to lend a hand

Staying up 'till dawn, drinking whiskey

Can't drown my pain or make a better man

Holidays couldn't get much longer

If only those memories could be more real

And I wish I could say, you left me stronger

Lying to myself wont change how I feel

I took after you since I can remember

Look, walk, and talk nearly just the same

I don't think I'm ready for the burden

Of carrying on our family name

I know for a fact how much you loved me

Never missed a chance to tell me so

I can only hope soon enough I'll realize

You raised me up to not fall but grow

Holidays couldn't get much longer

If only those memories could be more real

And I wish I could say, you left me stronger

Lying to myself wont change how I feel
