A Loved One

2011 Recording

You gave me strength, over the years
You taught me when, I shouldn't fear
You inspired me, in oh so many ways
And as I look at myself, I'm thankful today

You taught me things, that I never knew
And showed me how, to overcome the blues
And you steered me straight, when I drifted away
But I never though, it'd be quite this way

Now I still miss you, and your caring smile
And that special laugh, you made so worth while
Sharing our stories, sharing something new
You were my best friend, I'll always love you

Thoughts linger over me, as God guides my way
He keeps me going, each and every day
And although you're gone, It's like your still around
Your love was so great, I know you're heaven bound

Now I still miss you, and your caring smile
And that special laugh, you made so worth while
Sharing our stories, sharing something new
You were my best friend, I'll always love you

You were my best friend, I'll always love you
