What a feeling,
It would be if I could see you now,
I'm sure that we we would,
have a ball and we could play for hours.

But time don't work like that
And you had to go away when I was young,
Now I'm older, theres things I wish I'd,

Told you, shown you what I can do,
I'd love to hold you and tell you what's new
Grandad we would get in trouble too,
I'm sure, we would.

Stay up too late and drink too much and bet on a race,
Let you read my cards by the look on my face
The world would surely be a better place
If only, we could

Ain't it funny,
how much in common we would seem to be,
I only found out, more about you recently

And so I can't go back,
Gonna have to split the pack up on my own
But I remember

How you kept it simple, simply with a smile on your face,
You kept your distance from the human race,
I felt love when I came around your place,
For sure I did,

So no wonder mother says that I remind her of you,
We looked through different windows with a similar view,
You spoke your mind I always try to,
I do, oh I do

Life moves on, don't delay, don't delay,
Rain don't wait for the sun,
As time passed by, I'd ask why
I never knew at all
