Bring Me Home
Nothing ever happens when you’re not around
I’m a lock and you’re the missing key
So, you’ll put our dreams in the ground
If you leave me
So take me to heaven with you
We can make it all worthwhile
What we have together is still new
For you I’ll go the extra mile
Bring me home with you
Gather the stars in your hands
Give them up to pay our dues
So we can see all our long-lost friends
Bring me to heaven with you
Don’t leave me all alone
I know you have to go
But I don’t know what I’ll do
If I can’t go to heaven with you
I saw the sun set behind our house last night
Just over our lush green lawn
A gust of wind gave me a fright
In my heart I knew you must’ve gone
I could’ve went to heaven with you
But you said I had to stay behind
I can’t make sure what we built will follow through
You’ve put me in a bind
So please bring me home to you
Gather the stars in your hands
Give them up to pay my dues
So I can see all our friends
So I can see you
Bring me to heaven to be with you
You left me here all alone
I guess you had to go
But I don’t know what I’m gonna do
Cause I can’t be there with you
I saw a bird today, sitting in our favorite place
It turned around and looked me in the eye
I swear in that bird I saw your face
I guess that meant it was never goodbye
I think I’ll be ok
I’ll make sure to carry on our legacy
I’ll live my life today
I’ll put my heart in it for you and me
So, you don’t have to bring me home to you
Send the stars in your hands to me
Now I love you more than I ever knew
Your spirit has set me free
You don’t have to bring to heaven to be with you
Now I know that I’m never alone
Everything is as it should be
Now I know what I’m gonna do
Cause I know you’ll always be here with me

I wrote this poem for them. Their love inspired me. Their story inspired me. I love them both, and I miss you so much Uncle! Not as much as your wife misses you though. RIP
