I remember you crying that one night at 3am
On the edge of the bed, holding that picture again
It was you and a boy, with his new Christmas toys and trains
You forgot it was me said ya just couldn’t sleep til ya knew his name
So I told you my name
You said, Son…
I’m missing things
What if it’s everything
God knows I’m not prepared
I’m so scared for what this really means
To be missing things
I remember being 5 & crying at 3am
You ran to my room to chase monsters from under my bed
And all of those times handing you dandelions on Mothers Day
You’d take me outside we’d blow wishes to the sky
But now I just pray
Mom please don’t slip away
Cause I’m already missing things
What if it’s everything
God knows I’m not prepared
I’m so scared for what this really means
To be missing things
Every laugh that we shared
Every smile that you gave
Every tear that you dried
Every time you forgave me
I swear I’d give anything to bring all of you back to me
But if I have to watch you go
I just wanna hold your hand
Take in the moments when I’m not a stranger
And help you through the times when I am
When you’re missing things
I’ll be there for everything
God knows I gotta prepare
Oh but I’m still scared for what this really mean
To be missing things
So if you see me awake crying at 3am
I’ll be praying that once you’re in heaven you’ll remember again
And you won’t be missing things
