I talked with you 8 days ago and never thought life would change
I expected the next call to come, not knowing you were out of range
I did not know that when we talked, it would be our last
We talked of how we met and all the things of our past
I talked with you 8 days ago and never thought life would change
I expected the next call to come, not knowing you were out of range
I did not know that when we talked, it would be our last
We talked of how we met and all the things of our past
We met a long time ago on Ds, I was 10 yrs older, took you under my wing
I could feel your beautiful nature and that your heart followed the King
We talked most every day then and I told you the day would come
When our talks were less as you found your way and you said oh no, you're the one
I could feel your beautiful nature and that your heart followed the King
We talked most every day then and I told you the day would come
When our talks were less as you found your way and you said oh no, you're the one
I will always call you sweetheart, as long as the day is long
I will tell you of my good days and when it is going wrong
I will be here to listen to your hearts desire and how life can go
Until we have walked around those holes and we are in the know
I will tell you of my good days and when it is going wrong
I will be here to listen to your hearts desire and how life can go
Until we have walked around those holes and we are in the know
In the early days, you had romance on your mind
You had never had a friendship with one of a different kind
You walked that new path boldly, but sometimes were afraid
Till one day you made it and said, I'm so glad I stayed
You had never had a friendship with one of a different kind
You walked that new path boldly, but sometimes were afraid
Till one day you made it and said, I'm so glad I stayed
I know what that old saying means to be awash with grief
I feel it from the top of my head, to the bottom of my feet
I feel in the morning air and when nighttime comes to call
I know that I will feel it in the Spring or when it is the fall
I feel it from the top of my head, to the bottom of my feet
I feel in the morning air and when nighttime comes to call
I know that I will feel it in the Spring or when it is the fall
You will never leave me, a part of me you are
one day I will see you, when this wound becomes a scar
Together we will laugh, like we did once long ago
And tell each other as we did, we're the best people that we know
one day I will see you, when this wound becomes a scar
Together we will laugh, like we did once long ago
And tell each other as we did, we're the best people that we know
We could count on each other, even though months may pass
You were my knight in shining armour and I was your lass
I was your sweetheart and I still have that recorded, when I did not hear the phone
Your voice will have to console me, for now your spirit has flown
You were my knight in shining armour and I was your lass
I was your sweetheart and I still have that recorded, when I did not hear the phone
Your voice will have to console me, for now your spirit has flown
I told you of my hopes and dreams and maybe one day love
I never knew that one day a higher calling would come from above
It seems so unreal that I will never hear you call
I will do my honest best not to let my life stagger and stall
I never knew that one day a higher calling would come from above
It seems so unreal that I will never hear you call
I will do my honest best not to let my life stagger and stall
Without you, was a thought I had never entertained
I can't quite wrap my head around it, you still live there in my brain
I am sure many that were left behind have sung a similar refrain
So fly my bestest friend, my confidant and love
One day you and I will meet again, when I ascend the clouds above
I can't quite wrap my head around it, you still live there in my brain
I am sure many that were left behind have sung a similar refrain
So fly my bestest friend, my confidant and love
One day you and I will meet again, when I ascend the clouds above
We will sit together, no line between us then
We will be the best of friends as we have always been
I will tell you of my struggle to make the days go by
and you will tell me that you saw me and did not want me to cry
We will be the best of friends as we have always been
I will tell you of my struggle to make the days go by
and you will tell me that you saw me and did not want me to cry
Only to cherish the time that we were given
and remember the days of talking til we meet again
You said for me to love like I had never been hurt
But Even when you said that to me, it sounded like a flirt
and remember the days of talking til we meet again
You said for me to love like I had never been hurt
But Even when you said that to me, it sounded like a flirt
I will miss our waffle dates, you eating, me there on the phone
You talked of what you had done that week, and then I would groan
as you told me a silly joke just to hear me laugh
Often times, truth be told, it was on your behalf
You talked of what you had done that week, and then I would groan
as you told me a silly joke just to hear me laugh
Often times, truth be told, it was on your behalf
They say parting is such sweet sorrow or at least that is the way the line goes
i say I will see you on the morrow will bells jingling on my toes
You left behind so many memories that make me smile again
You were the best man I know and an even better friend
i say I will see you on the morrow will bells jingling on my toes
You left behind so many memories that make me smile again
You were the best man I know and an even better friend
It seems inconceivable that we can never share
your love of beaches and the rain or a heart rock to show you care
But I will recognize you when I open my eyes or close them in the rain
And one day my heart will not be squeezed with this intolerable pain
your love of beaches and the rain or a heart rock to show you care
But I will recognize you when I open my eyes or close them in the rain
And one day my heart will not be squeezed with this intolerable pain
Goodbye my dear Rick as you travel. You were the best.. Always, Kimmee
