Verse 1
I still see those little boots flying through the yard,
Chasing every soccer ball like it was written in the stars.
You’d laugh until your belly hurt, then run right back again,
Somehow four short years gave us a lifetime packed within.
You’d climb up in my blue work truck, saying, “Dad, let’s go,”
Wanted to help with every job, even if you were too small.
Then you’d wrap your little arms around my neck so tight,
Smile and whisper, “Dad… not too tight.”
Chorus
Ride high, Liam, where the fields never end,
Where angels cheer you on like your very best friends.
Kick that soccer ball across Heaven’s open sky,
Ride that dirt bike through the clouds, so fearless and so free.
Your brothers still look for you in every sunset’s glow,
And every breeze reminds us that love never lets go.
Until God brings us together, that’s the promise we hold tight…
We’ll carry you forever, our beautiful little light.
Verse 2
Your brothers still say, “Remember when…” with tears behind their smiles,
’Cause every room still echoes with the joy you left behind.
You never met a stranger, every heart became your friend,
You taught us what real love was before your life had reached its end.
Some nights I sit in silence, staring at the stars,
Wondering if you’re laughing where the golden meadows are.
I close my eyes and hear your voice like it was yesterday…
“Sup, bro,” still echoes in my heart every single day.
Bridge
Lord, if You can hear a father’s prayer,
Tell my little boy his daddy’s still right here.
Tell him every sunrise carries his name,
And not one day has ever been the same.
When my work here finally comes to an end,
I pray the first thing that I hear again…
Is little footsteps running straight to me,
And one more hug… “Dad, not too tight.”
Final Chorus
Ride high, Liam, until we meet again,
Where every broken heart is whole and time will never end.
No goodbye could ever steal the love you’ve left behind,
You’re forever our son, forever our light.
Keep that dirt bike running through Heaven’s endless skies,
Kick your soccer ball beneath your Savior’s eyes.
We’ll keep saying your name until the day we reunite…
Sleep peacefully, sweet Liam…
Dad loves you with all his might.
