Never Got to Meet You
I never got to meet you
Never got to see your smile
You are still a part of me
I will never know just why
Never got to hear your laugh
As you pulled pranks on the town
Now I understand why I
Always seem to like the clown
Sorry that you felt so much
I know how hard that can be
Sorry you felt you had to
Drink and keep it all inside
Although I wish you hadn’t
Left so early how you did
If it hadn’t happened then
I may not be here today
I’m glad I heard some stories
A small glimpse into your life
Glad I got to see your grave
And your small old town and farm
And now I want to thank you
For having all of your kids
For passing silly to me
Because that I know you did
