Verse 1
Four little hearts changed everything,
Gave this old life a sweeter song to sing.
I wasn’t perfect, Lord knows that’s true,
But every better part of me came from you..
When the road was rough and the nights were long,
You became the reason that I stayed strong.
Chorus
I hate to go, but I have to say goodbye,
Don’t let the tears keep you from the sky.
You’re the best of me that’s plain to see,
You’re the hope that lives beyond me.
Carry my love wherever you roam,
Find your faith and make it your home.
When you miss me, just look above-
You’ll always be surrounded
By my love.
Verse 2
To my two sons, stand steady, stand true,
Be men of honor in all that you do.
To my two daughters, let your light shine,
Your strength and kindness will outlive time.
Love each other when I’m gone,
Family is where you’ll always belong .
Bridge
Don’t remember only the tears we cried,
Remember the laughter and the miles we tried.
If I left you anything worth holding on to,
It’s to live,to forgive and seeing things through .
Final Chorus
I hate to go, but I have to say goodbye,
Every soul must spread its wings and fly.
You’re the best of me, that’s who’ll you be, you’re the hope that carries me.
So live with courage , and laugh out loud,
Make this old man forever proud.
Until we meet where the angels sing,
Know my love won’t leave a thing.
I may be gone from your sight someday ,
But my heat won’t ever fade away.
