Instead

Instead

when I heard the news, I knew it just couldn't

be true, I just saw you three hours ago

when I saw you lying there all cold and

blue I thought how could you I held your

hand and kissed your cheek wishing it was

me instead of you, I was so mad and I hated

you too because you left me I knew not what

to do, you told me you would never leave and

now your gone away, I feel your pain now

its all up to me I wish it was me instead

of you you had so much to live for you had

so much more to do you had three kids and a

wife, you worked real hard and played hard

too I wished it was me there instead of

you. Now your dead and in the ground no

more wisdom or shall it be found, you took

part of me with you and that has been said

when I watched them put you in the ground,

I can't understand why it was you and not

me instead.
