I know that God called you away,
I felt so really sad that day,
I didn't want to let you go,
I love you dad, I hope you know.
I loved you when you used to call down to me,
You used to love ginger nut biscuits with your tea.
I used to give out about the drink,
You would say sssshhhh and give me a wink.
Thomas and Haleigh loved you so
But Owen was too young to know.
I know you were brilliant at building stone walls
You done them so well that you got loads of calls.
I see that mam is very sad
At times she takes it very bad.
I know she's feeling very lonely
With you at home it was so homely.
