Nothing I Can Do
I'm just sitting here thinking of you.
Knowing, there's nothing I can do.
I can never ever, bring you back,
or in any way fill the painful lack.
You've missed so much my dear son.
The songs, the laughter, and the fun.
How I wish I could see your smile,
and hold you close, all the while.
I can see a smudge on your face.
I'll dab it gently, and it will erase.
Sit on my lap, so that we can talk,
Or take my hand and we will walk.
Take delight in the new toy you got.
Have fun playing with it, play a lot.
Please, just smile at me once again.
You're my sweet, gentle, little man.
Play with the dog, throw the ball.
Jump on the bed, draw on a wall.
Break a lamp, or drop your plate.
Refuse to sleep, and stay up late.
All these things won't bring me strife.
I just want you here, back in my life.
I'm just sitting here thinking of you.
Knowing, there's nothing I can do.
Knowing, there's nothing I can do.
I can never ever, bring you back,
or in any way fill the painful lack.
You've missed so much my dear son.
The songs, the laughter, and the fun.
How I wish I could see your smile,
and hold you close, all the while.
I can see a smudge on your face.
I'll dab it gently, and it will erase.
Sit on my lap, so that we can talk,
Or take my hand and we will walk.
Take delight in the new toy you got.
Have fun playing with it, play a lot.
Please, just smile at me once again.
You're my sweet, gentle, little man.
Play with the dog, throw the ball.
Jump on the bed, draw on a wall.
Break a lamp, or drop your plate.
Refuse to sleep, and stay up late.
All these things won't bring me strife.
I just want you here, back in my life.
I'm just sitting here thinking of you.
Knowing, there's nothing I can do.
