Sanoja: Geri Karlstrom. Other. You Knew Me To The End.

You're tired and confused today
you see the moment through a haze
you bravely sit in shadows as you live your final days
and i just watch you helplessly as you drift away

where is the passion, the hero
the strong man who held my hand?
my counselor, my father and friend
what will i do if the day comes
that you may forget my face
another step closer to the end

i gaze into your shining eyes
you haven't spoken in a while
but i believe that even though your words are locked away
i see your little tear and it says more than words can say

it says i'm still here, i love you
and if i could i'd hold your hand
my comfort, my daughter and friend
and if the day comes that i don't
remember and know your face
you'll be in my heart until the end

and when our visit's over and it's time to say goodbye
i put my cheek so close to yours and hear you softly sigh

yes you were still here, you loved me
and if you could you'd hold my hand
my father my hero and friend
the final gift that you gave me
i'll always treasure in my heart
was knowing you knew me to the end
was knowing you knew me to the end
