I had a dream I was flying Mother said you were alive again More alive than you’d ever been I sprinted out to the water’s edge I got to look in your eyes again I got to look in your eyes You didn’t say you were leaving But looking back I guess you did And God I wish that I had heard you then Guess that I wasn’t listening I got to see you smile again I got to see you smile And I hope that little lake house Wasn’t only in my dreams I hope where you are is kinder Than this earth could ever be I hope when you took that final leap of faith It felt like flying And I hope somehow you finally know How much we really love you And that any doubt about it is left In this world behind you You gave me all my dreams I’ll be staying gold for you I got to look in your eyes again I got to say goodbye
