that day you were born

that day creeps forward...that day you were born 
with memories behind me I've crawled slowly forward
no longer in dreams, nor can I remember your voice 
I remember your words and how you left without choice 

do you rest easy from your cloud in the sky? 
with angels and harps do you see from up high? 
do you watch me and smile or look down in dread? 
can you send me a message when I'm over my head? 

I once thought I lost your little metal tag 
it's off of my keyring secure in my bag 
we may not have always seen eye to eye 
but I always felt your love and will 'til I die 

no time for farewell or even one last kiss 
did you know you were going and what we would miss? 
one last time I viewed you laying cold and still
it plays on this day and always will
