YOU MAY NOT HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THERE
BUT YOU WERE STILL OUR POPPY
THE DAY WE HEARD THE NEWS
WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
WE CLOSED OUR EYES AS THE TEARS FELL
WE DIDN'T WANT TO BELIEVE THIS WAS HAPPENING
WE DIDN'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS COULD BE
WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW YOU WERE SICK
WE WANTED TO BELIEVE THIS WAS ALL A DREAM
WE WEREN'T EXPECTING IT SO SOON
FRIENDS AND FAMILY WERE GATHERED FOR A CELEBRATION OF THE NEW YEAR
THEN THE CALL CAME THROUGH
WE WERE SHOCKED
ONCE AGAIN OUR EYES CLOSED AND THE TEARS KEPT FALLING
NOW ITS TIME TO SAY GOODBYE
WE ARE SCARED BUT WE KNOW GOD NEEDED YOU
AS TIME GOES BY WE WILL UNDERSTAND
BUT FOR NOW WE WILL HAVE TO BE STRONG
JUST REMEMBER WE LOVE YOU AN ALWAYS WILL
DONT WORRY ABOUT US
WE KNOW YOUR IN A BETTER PLACE
WE BET NAN CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU
YOUR FINALLY FREE!
WE WILL MEET AGAIN, WE WILL MEET AGAIN AT THE GATES
