It's such a cloudy day
But, the birds still do play,
The cold is kept at bay
You are not here today.
Dad, I wish you had stayed
I stop and watch trees sway,
'Neath the warmth of sun's rays
I can't have it that way.
I hear you call my name
From very far away,
I'll be with you, someday
But, it won't be today.
