Time goes by and God knows I try to carry on with life
Decide not to hide feelings inside, even though they hurt
Sometimes, I forget to remember you
It’s easy to lock away the pains, don’t want to relive it through
But I stay strong, you taught me how to move on in this world
I married my sweetheart, even got a little baby girl
I wish you could see her, I swear she looks just like you
If you can hear me, show me a sign, please send her a butterfly or two

[chorus:]
I’m thinking about forever (missing you)
I know you’re so much better (we made it through)

Now I know what it means to live for someone else
To give up yourself
Things have changed, at times it gets kind of strange
Your love remains the same
Do I make you proud? Mama, can you see me now?
Whatever is good in me is because you showed me how to take love by the hand
And so now I can share you with my baby
So that she can understand

[chorus]

[ending chorus:]
I’m thinking about forever (missing you)
I know you’re so much better (we made it through)
I’m thinking about forever (missing you)
I’m tripping on whatever (hearing you)

– this song was written by Sonny Sandoval (lead vocalist of P.O.D., in memory of his mother, who passed away when he was nineteen. the song hit me hard because it made me realize that, life still does go on. and even though we may lose an important person in our life, be it a loved one or an acquaintance, the impact that person left on you will still keep you goin’, and it will keep your mind & heart on what matters most; that life is precious, especially a life that is under the influence of God’s Word. hope this one helps.
