Two years ago he said goodbye and left his tired body,
Two years ago today my Daddy died,
Two years as half a man, he tried so hard to live without her,
Two years ago he left to find his bride;
And Daddy I remember all the things that you once told me,
As I walked along beside you in the rain,
But the days now run together into years, I don’t know whether,
I can stand the lonely hours and the pain;
The girl I love, like you love Mom, she’s in my life, I found her,
I told you when your body was still here,
There’s no other, Dad, I love her, and I’ll cherish her forever,
And I know you love her too, you made it clear;
So dance and sing and toast and scream in soulmate jubilation,
Here’s to you, and here’s to me, and here’s to love,
For you and Mom, as saints and angels, will wrap your arms around us always,
To help us love the way you do from up above;
Two years ago he said goodbye and left his tired body,
Two years ago today my Daddy died,
Two years as half a man, he tried so hard to live without her,
Two years ago he left to find his bride.
*Two years ago today my Dad was assisted with his death so he could return to his one and only love.
