New star

You cradled me lovingly in your arms
The day that i was born
A comforting feeling surrounded me
But today i am feeling torn.

My shining rock has lost its light
But in the sky, you'll shine so bright
As i look up and ask a question
The wind will blow me to you

They say the good leave early,
As this day will tell us so
Although my hearts still beating
Inside me your love will glow

Whilst the sadness is around us
Happy memories were built to last
The pain and fears are all too clear
Whilst my tears are falling fast.

A fathers love for his family
Was built like a concrete wall
No matter what was thrown at it
His love would conquer all.

Saying goodbye sounds so final
So farewell and see you soon
We know you will be waiting
With your smile and warm heart too
