This is for
my peoples
Who just
lost somebody
Ya best
friend ya baby
Ya man or
ya lady
Put ya hand
way up high
We will never
say bye
Mamas daddys
sisters brothers
Friends and
cousins
This is for
my peoples
Who lost their
grandmothers
Lift ya head
to the sky
Cause we will
never say bye
As a child there
were them times
I didn't get it
but you kept
me in line
I didn't know
why you didn't
show up sometimes
On Sunday mornings
and I missed you
But I'm glad we
talked through
All them grown
folk things
Separation brings
You never let
me know it
You never let
it show because
You loved me
and obviously
There's so much m
ore left to say
If you were
with me today
Face to face
Never knew
I could hurt
like this
And everyday
life goes on I
Wish I could
talk to you for
a while
Miss you but
I try not to cry
As time goes by
And it's true
that you've
Reached a
better place
Still I'd give
the world
To see your
face bye
And be right
here next
to you bye
But it's like
you're gone
too soon bye
Now the hardest
thing to do
Is say bye bye
Bye bye bye
bye bye bye
Bye bye bye
bye bye bye
Bye bye bye
bye bye bye
Bye bye
And you never
got a chance
To see how
good I done
And you never
got to see me
Back at
number one
I wish that
you were here
To celebrate
together
I wish that
we could spend
The holidays
together
I remember
when you used to
Tuck me in
at night
With the teddy
bear you gave me
That I held
so tight
I thought you
were so strong
You'd make it
through whatever
It's so hard
to accept the fact
You're gone
forever
I never knew
I could hurt
like this
And everyday
life goes on I
Wish I could
talk to you
for a while
Miss you but
I try not to cry
As time goes by
And it's
true that you've
Reached a
better place
Still I'd
give the world
To see your face
And be right
here next to you
But it's like
you're gone
too soon
Now the
hardest
thing to do
Is say bye bye
Bye bye bye
bye bye bye
Bye bye bye
bye bye bye
Bye bye bye
bye bye bye
Bye bye
