This is for my peoples

　Who just lost somebody

　Ya best friend ya baby

　Ya man or ya lady

　Put ya hand way up high

　We will never say bye




　Mamas daddys sisters brothers

　Friends and cousins

　This is for my peoples

　Who lost their grandmothers
　
　Lift ya 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




　Never knew I could hurt like this

　And everyday life goes on I

　Wish I could talk to you for a while

　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 be 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 a chance

　To see how good I 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 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 I

　Wish I could talk to you for a while

　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

　And be right here next to you

　But it’s like you’re gone too soon

　Now the hardest thing to do

　Is say bye bye




　Bye bye bye
