Story behind the song

This song is dedicated to my father, who passed away on May 2, 2007. We mourn the loss of a great friend, mentor, leader and loving father. May the Lord have mercy.

Lyrics

Hold up, hold up,
I can't see you anymore,
You were there just a minute ago,
but where are you now?

You've been with us for a while,
I always loved to see you smile,
but now all that is gone,
and you passed on.

But you're with the angels now,
and I have to live with that somehow,
somehow learn to stand now on my own.
on my own.

Wait up wait up,
I must have lost my way,
and when I reached you at the gate,
it was too late.

The rays of sun seem cold today,
congregation slowly on their way.
And I know I must be strong,
and carry on.

Cause you're with the angels now,
and I have to live with that somehow,
But I ll be strong and make you proud,
will make you proud. 

I remember you once said, 
no matter what I'll always be around you, son.
Those are not dead that eternally lie, 
take comfort in our faith and even death my die.
Heavenly father smile upon us, 
till one day we'll see your kingdom come
your kingdom come.

So sleep now, sleep now,
and I'll be right here by your side.
And if you want I will stay here,
all through the nite.

This last trip you take alone,
can't hitch a ride to tag along.
But where you go, I can't go
at least not yet, I know.

And know that we love you so,
just bystanders in this last grand show,
tears me apart to let you go,
but will let you go.
