Here's a song I wrote about ALS

ALWAYS IN MY HEART             

CHORUS:
[No matter how long it's been
I know where you are now
You will always be with me,
In my-y-y heart]

When you were a young man
still only young, too young to die...
I was just fifteen
Still needing my Daddy.

All of us were so happy
life was near perfect,
Our family was together...
Finally.

Then came the bad news,
Nothing ever stays perfect
at least not for long.
And no one was ready.

[CHORUS]

We heard you were dying.
How were we supposed to,
Cope with all this.
We all needed you so much.

How could this be?
Life was so good, until this disease.
I never even knew,
What this disease was until...

You went so quickly,
I wanted my Daddy,
Too young to die.
We were all too young to lose you anddd....

[CHORUS]

The only thing that got me through,
Was trusting in a miracle,
Even til the end.
The very, very end.

Finally I realized,
Or understood I had to,
There would be no miracle.
So I whispered through my tears...

“Daddy, just go ahead and let go,
I know that you're holding on.”
It was hurting me so much,
seeing him like that, barely breathing.

After saying “I love you”
His eyes raised up to heaven,
Focused on Something: the face of God.
He had left this earth…

[No matter how long it's been
I know where you are now
You will always be with me,
In my-y-y heart

I will love you forever,
best Daddy ever,
In the who-o-ole world...
In my-y-y heart]
