" Who are these strangers standing over your grave

          ... not knowing your story and you not knowing theirs.
We are the ones that know where you lie

          ... yet we are the ones that won t let you die.
Maybe this story will comfort our hearts

          ... to bring us closer and not so far apart.
We always wondered, we were always sad

          ... and all we could do is call you Dad.
