Part of My Day

And I still miss you, I still feel connected
you come by surprise when it's most unexpected
something someone said, an old song I hear
but then I remember that you're no longer here

We were different then others, birds of a feather
but that wasn't bad cause we were different together
in this ruthless world you couldn't find
a place for your soul, so gentle and kind

I've been up and down, but now I'm OK
trying to let hope be part of my day
I'm not aiming too high, not reaching to low
trying to forget some of the things that I know

They didn't know you, despite what they say
they did not understand you, they're not thinking your way
and you were hurting, they didn't care at all
no one realized then just how deep you can fall

I've been up and down, but now I'm OK
trying to let faith be part of my day
I'm not aiming too high, not reaching to low
trying to forget some of the things that I know

I know the world wasn't ready
for the likes of you
and even back then I think
you already knew
That despite all the pain, the guilt and the shame
They would eventually change
while you forever stay the same

All the pictures I took in so many places
your beautiful smile, the sweet funny faces
I stored them somewhere in the back of my mind
it's time to move on, it's time to leave you behind

I've been up and down, but now I'm OK
trying to let love be part of my day
I'm not aiming too high, not reaching to low
trying to forget some of the things that I know
