Because You`re Not Here


This was written by my son John Paul Budgen for his son Kevins first anniversary of his death on the 26/10/12 Kevin was his only son and aged just 22 at the time, and of course he was my grandson too. RIP Kevin. love always Dad xxx Nannie

Because you`re not here
There is a huge tear
And a hole in my heart
Since we`ve been apart

A piece of me`s gone
And I`m all alone
Just memories to share
Life`s so damned unfair

My own blood - my son
Yes my only one
Yet I am so proud
And shout it out loud

I hope that up there
You know I still care
That I love you still
And I always will

I hope you`re at peace
And all sorrows ceased
And as long as I`m here
You`ll always be near

You were my lad
And I am your dad
And life`s not the same
And I feel all the pain

Over and over and over again.
