I Miss You

You said you wanted to die We said we want you to live But you were near 95 And we were just selfish kids And you were trying to be real I can't imagine just how hard that was to do I miss you You said you'd lived long enough And you were ready to go You did your crosswords at noon Then fell asleep to your shows You were so tired of that screen I can't imagine just how hard it was for you Still I miss you Everybody knows that death will come to claim them in the end But I do suppose for you he was a long awaited friend When it was nearing the time I hope your heart still felt clear And that the call of beyond Was a mercy to hear Cause you were finally free I can't imagine what it felt like passing through I miss you I miss you I miss you I miss you
