This is for my peoples who just lost somebody

Your best friend your baby your man or your lady

Put your hand way up high

We will never say bye no no no

Mamas daddies sisters brothers friends and cousins

This is for my peoples who lost their grandmothers

Lift your head to the sky 'cause we will never say bye

As a child there were them times

I didn't get it but you kept me in line

I didn't know why you didn't show up sometimes

On Sunday mornings and I missed you

But I'm glad we talked through

All them grown folk things

Separation brings

You never let me know it

You never let it show because

You loved me and obviously

There's so much more left to say

If you were with me today face to face

I never knew I could hurt like this

And everyday life goes on like

I wish I could talk to you for awhile

Miss you but I try not to cry

As time goes by

And it's true that you've reached a better place

Still I'd give the world to see your face bye

And I'm right here next to you bye

But it's like you're gone too soon bye

Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye

And you never got the chance to see how good I've done

And you never got to see me back at number one

I wish that you were here to celebrate together

I wish that we could spend the holidays together

I remember when you used to tuck me in at night

With the Teddy Bear you gave to me that I held so tight

I thought you were so strong

You'd make it through whatever

It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone forever

I never knew I could hurt like this

And everyday life goes on like

I wish I could talk to you for awhile

Miss you but I try not to cry

As time goes by

And it's true that you've reached a better place

Still I'd give the world to see your face bye

And I'm right here next to you bye

But it's like you're gone too soon bye

Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye

This is for my peoples who just lost somebody

Your best friend your baby your man or your lady

Put your hand way up high

We will never say bye no no no

Mamas daddies sisters brothers friends and cousins

This is for my peoples who lost their grandmothers

Lift your head to the sky 'cause we will never say bye

Bye

I never knew I could hurt like this

And everyday life goes on like

I wish I could talk to you for awhile

Miss you but I try not to cry

As time goes by

And it's true that you've reached a better place

Still I'd give the world to see your face bye

And I'm right here next to you bye

But it's like you're gone too soon bye

Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Bye bye Bye bye
