Funny when...

Funny when someone dies
you never know how many tears to cry
you think about them day and night
and always how they tried to fight

you entered my life just a year ago
the sweetest person i could meet
but now it seems its time to go
this disease you just can't beat

you survived for thirteen years
saying things no one else would
always smiling and making cheers
you survived i wish that i could

without you here i can't explain
this short time we've spent
and yet all your years with such pain
my heart will be strong stay together but be bent

your big blue eyes will no longer shine
but in the stars I'll see them again
and as we raise our glasses of wine
we think of how it has been

toasting to you and praying
i miss you already
and i keep on saying
am i going to be able to be steady

will i keep from breaking down
can't you stay here on the ground
stay with us a little while
heaven isn't a few miles

i know you'll always be here
but it's not the same to smell and touch you
you said it's my time to go dear
but Glenn, i say you say i love you too
