[Intro]
[Verse 1]
The turmoil ceased, the stress was through,
A silent promise, pure and true.
You came back not in old distress,
But with a final, soft caress.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
The clutter vanished, walls were free,
A sudden, swift, and clean decree.
[Chorus]
You gathered our kids to hold them near,
To share the words we now hold dear.
You spoke of futures long and bright,
"Be good," you told them, holding them so tight,
We watched the sun beyond the dawn,
And "listen to Daddy, help him carry on."
You made the meal, no drop was waste,
A final, loving thing you placed.
[Verse 2]
Oh, the soft deceit behind your eyes,
While I looked up at sunlit skies.
You cleaned the house with silent grace,
To leave us order in this place.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You planned it for your final rest,
I simply failed your gentle test.
[Chorus]
You gathered our kids to hold them near,
To share the words we now hold dear.
You spoke of futures long and bright,
"Be good," you told them, holding them so tight,
We watched the sun beyond the dawn,
And "listen to Daddy, help him carry on."
You made the meal, no drop was waste,
A final, loving thing you placed.
[Adlib]
[Pre-Chorus 3]
You planned it for your final rest,
I simply failed your gentle test.
[Chorus]
You gathered our kids to hold them near,
To share the words we now hold dear.
You spoke of futures long and bright,
"Be good," you told them, holding them so tight,
We watched the sun beyond the dawn,
And "listen to Daddy, help him carry on."
You made the meal, no drop was waste,
A final, loving thing you placed.
[Chorus]
You gathered our kids to hold them near,
To share the words we now hold dear.
You spoke of futures long and bright,
"Be good," you told them, holding them so tight,
We watched the sun beyond the dawn,
And "listen to Daddy, help him carry on."
You made the meal, no drop was waste,
A final, loving thing you placed.
[Outro]
Then came the night, so still and deep,
You closed your eyes and went to sleep.
The last, best thing you left us here,
A memory of peace to keep.
[End]
