The Light in My Sky of Stars

It's been more than ten years
Since I've seen your face
All I want is a conversation
About this big-wide place
And you don't even need to know the answers
I just want to hold you mate

Oh it's been more than ten-whole years
And my Mum misses your embrace
Kept your old Xbox downstairs
It's sentimental in my brain
And I remember getting stuck on Star Wars
But you came and saved the day

And these memories I've kept
So you will never go too far
And these guys, they won't
Ever be who you truly were
And I'll try and make you proud
With all of my heart
Dad, now you are
The light in my sky of stars

I remember when you used to bath us
You weren't very good
'Snakey' the shower head, arch-enemy
Keeps me on edge still
Though these memories are far away
I remember them like yesterday

When we drove in your van
Down the Treble 4
I thought that we we're gonna crash
When I wasn't even in control
But I loved it when we drove past our school
You said, "Go and learn some more"
It was Saturday

And these memories I've kept
So you will never go too far
And these guys, they won't
Ever be who you truly were
And I'll try and make you proud
With all of my heart
Dad, now you are
The light in my sky of stars

And these memories I've kept
So you will never go too far
And these guys, they won't
Ever be who you truly were
And I'll try and make you proud
With all of my heart
Dad, now you are
The light in my sky of stars

There's been bad days
Where I wish you were by my side
There's been dark shade
When I needed you to colour my life
And I wish i could be the one
To take you from the light
Now you're God's gift
I hope you are doing alright
I hope you're doing alright
