College

When I'm feeling down and it's hard for me to see

I just think of when you slept over watching over me

And it makes me feel better, but really not that much

I reach out my hand frightened to throw your hand a clutch

You taught me how to play this thing then you left me here

I'm running from my sadness and I'm running from my fear

Something deep inside of me will always miss you

But now you're gone and there is nothing I can do

but like it ever was,

My guitar needs tuning and the TV's in a fuss

I lay awake and cry at night waiting for the sound

Of your foot steps coming up the stairs while I watch a show downtown

You taught me how to play this thing, then you left me here

I'm running from my sadness and I'm running from fear

A broken string, a broken heart is all I have to hold

But just like you have always been I'll try to be as bold

I lost a real good friend today but you had to leave

And now I hope, and every night I pray

That you are kept safe and brought back to me someday

I miss you and I love you, this you already know

What I didn't tell you is that you're my hero
