** TRIBUTE **
Should You Go First
Should you go first, and we remain to walk the road alone W e 'll live in memories' garden, dear, with happy days w e've known
In Spring w e'll wait for roses red when fades the lilac blue In early Fall when brown leaves fa ll w e'll catch a glimpse o f you
I f you go first and we remain one thing w e'd have you do W alk slowly down the path o f Death for soon w e'll follow you W e 'll want to know each step you take that we may walk the same For someday down that lonely road you 'll hear us call your name.

My Dad
