Intro

D

 How do you Gtell a child that Csomeone has dGied

 Innocent visions of youth are Donly a lie

 I Gtried to tell them and Clord knows I Gtried

 But any way you break it you'll Djust make em Gcry

Little Tommy, I have bad news for you today

The teacher you loved Mr. Peterson

Has sadly passed away

He was killed by a motorist in a drunken act of rage

Let em live on in your heart

Now we must turn the page

Little Suzy, your father has passed on

His love for you was relentless as it was strong

If only he knew he'd be gone so soon

He would have tried and spent more time

But he's on God's clock, not yours and mine

Keep him in your heart each and every day

And there he will live on and never fade away
