Fallen Hero

Written By Desiree I. In Memory of Pop-pop Joe

You left us with goodbyes and open arms.
A cut so deep we don't deserve,
but the man upstairs needed you,
to watch over us.
You were always invincible in our eyes.
The only thing against us now is time.
Could it be any harder to say goodbye?
And without you could it be any harder to watch you go,
To face whats true and to face the world alone.
If I only had one more day,
I would stand beside you as you tell us your stories
And sing us your songs.
Now that you're gone,
All I want to do is lie down and blind myself with laughter.
A quick fix of hope is all I need
and how I wish I could turn back the hours,
But I know I just don't have to power.

I would jump at the chance to hear
Your sweet voice singing "Amore"
And I'd listen close to your every word as if it were your last..
I know I can speak for everyone that knew you
And I know that we will never forget the story about your brother and how he was ran over by the weasel.
I know it was you last, cause you're gone.

Like the sand on my feet,
The smell of sweet perfume
You'll stick to me forever
and I wish you didn't go.
To touch you again with life in your hands,
Could it be any harder?
