Another anniversary, birthday or just a day
celebrated with an empty chair
And a silent tear shed
For those no longer there

Be they brother, lover or just a friend
Their memory lives on with every story told
And every tear dropp shed

So dry your tears and hold your head with pride
Even though the hurt you feel so deep inside
My never end, It will soften with time
And the comfort of a friend
