Why?
Why does everybodies world still turn
When our world feels like an endless churn
Why are all around us happy still
When every day’s like climbing a hill
How can we ever smile again
When everything divides into now and then
All that was good seems gone and long ago
What lies ahead we don’t seem to want to know
Why can we hardly bear a happy face
Why is it hard seeing someone embrace
Why do I now hate “Have a good day”
Now that all good days have gone away
Why is there nothing to look forward to
Why’s there no end to what we’re going through
Why can we not just turn back time
Return to the days, when our world was fine
We want you back in our arms
So that you feel no pain, no harms
I can’t imagine living without you
Waiting for death is what seems left to do
Then I remember you were always positive
You loved to laugh, you loved to live
You would have wanted us to carry on
Even without you, now that you are gone
Your memory shall give us power
To go through every lonely hour
Until in heaven we finally meet again
And be together happy and forever then
