Let You Go

You were a father, a hero, a leader Life was all good but with you it was sweeter Always on time whenever we would need you Fighting our crimes and suppressing our evil Not every hero wears a cape Had your integrity that's all it takes The good die young that's why you went away I just hate that I never said I love you, and thanks Badge sparkle like a diamond when it hit the light Joking on the radio to get us all through the night Black boots freshly polished in your closet Picture of your family folded sitting in your wallet Called me from academy, talked about when we graduate All the changes that you'd like to see get made and put in place Greatest power's getting people to believe and see your vision Well on your way to becoming chief of your division Not every hero wears a cape Had your integrity that's all it takes The good die young that's why you went away I just hate that I never said I love you, and thanks We will never let you go We don't, want to, forget or let you go We will never let you go We don't, want to, forget or let you go All week you worked a double shift Cause I needed time, when my mom was sick That girl with cancer you took on patrol, let hit the siren She lived, when I told you didn't, we started crying Still, can't help but feel this is a drill But it's real, I really need to take some time and heal We built a building, and named it after you Uphold your legacy is what we're going to do Funded your kids' college, from forming a foundation Now you send kids to college for free around the nation God needed a soldier to help protect the pearly gates I just hate, I never said I love you and thanks We will never let you go We don't, want to, forget or let you go We will never let you go We don't, want to, forget or let you go You were a father, a hero, a leader Life was all good but with you it was sweeter Always on time whenever we would need you Fighting our crime and suppressing our evil Not every hero wears a cape Had your integrity that's all it takes The good die young that's why you went away I just hate that I never said I love you, and thanks We will never let you go We don't, want to, forget or let you go We will never let you go We don't, want to, forget or let you go We will never let you go We don't, want to, forget or let you go We will never let you go We will never let you go
