Dad, been gone so long
Almost 10 year, it's been a rough few years. You wouldn't like it at all.
Barry and I were just talking about missing our parents. We hear people complain about their mom or dad, we say enjoy them while they are here. Cause when their gone it's sad, lonely and not the same. Miss you and mom, till we meet again
