Five short months don’t sound like much
To folks who never knew your touch
But son, you filled my whole heart up
More than words could ever say
You’d look at me with those bright eyes
And light up every room inside
The sweetest smile I’ve ever known
Still carries me today
Oh, Little Bug, I miss you every day
Your laughter still echoes though you’ve gone away
I’d give anything to hold you close and rock you back to sleep
But I know you’re in Heaven where the angels gently keep
And when my time on earth is through
The first thing that I’m gonna do
Is find my Little Bug and hold you once again
There’s an empty place here in my arms
Where I used to keep you safe from harm
Some nights I swear I hear your laugh
Drifting on the wind
And though the tears still sometimes fall
The love we shared outlasts it all
A father’s heart can’t say goodbye
To a son he’ll love ’til the end
Oh, Little Bug, I miss you every day
Your laughter still echoes though you’ve gone away
I’d give anything to hold you close and rock you back to sleep
But I know you’re in Heaven where the angels gently keep
And when my time on earth is through
The first thing that I’m gonna do
Is find my Little Bug and hold you once again
They say time can heal the deepest scars
But it can’t erase who you are
You’re written in every beat of my heart
And every prayer I send up above
So until the day we meet again
I’ll carry you through my thick and thin
My son, my Little Bug, my forever love
Oh, Little Bug, I miss you every day
But I know we’ll meet again beyond those pearly gates
And I’ll finally hold you in my arms and never let you go
We’ll laugh together once again like only Heaven knows
Until that day, I’ll carry on
With your memory making me strong
My Little Bug, my son, my heart, my home.
