Lyrics
Goodbye Sweet Child
©2008
V1
We don't talk about the accident, there's no need to
We're just thankful for the time we had with you
But we still can't think about you without crying
It's hard to look ahead but we're trying
V2
Last night we attended your class graduation
It was really hard a bittersweet situation
Made us so proud when they called your name
All your friends said without you it wasn't the same
Chorus
Goodbye sweet child now you're home
Holding God's hand pure and free
I can almost see your face
Saying "don't cry for me
Don't worry I'm happy here
I'm where everyone wants to be"
Goodbye sweet child
Goodbye sweet child
V3
Your grandpa and grandma don't have much to say
To them life is not supposed to go this way
Their hopes of watching you grow through the years
Have been replaced with memories, grief and tears
Repeat Chorus
