Lyrics:

And this is your song, Sir
A melody of tears and words
For that is what brought us here
A mixture of things said and heard

And who'd have imagined
that things would've turned out this way
That instead of just talking to you
I'd sing you a song just to say

I remember the days when we smiled and laughed
But the smiles are gone and the laughter has passed
And though you may think me a liar
seeing how these events have transpired
I tell you it's true, I love you.

So where do we go from here?
is it too late to repair?
I know there's nothing that I can do
so I'll go to my Father in prayer.

Father, may you comfort him
and give him Your Holy Peace
so that one day when this over
maybe he could sing this to me

I remember the days when we smiled and laughed
But the smiles are gone and the laughter has passed
And though you may think me a liar
seeing how these events have transpired
I tell you it's true, I love you.

And though it may seem so far away
I know that the Lord will heal this one day
And then we'll smile and laugh and play.
