[Verse 1]

Dear Dad, I see you're not in pain

It's good to know the bruises on your back have gone away

You're a great man, I hope you know you paved

The road i'm on, I know you know I miss you every day

Life is so hard, it's empty, I'm afraid

I feel alone without you here so every night I pray

God I miss you, and that'll never change

I go to bed and cry myself to sleep to ease the pain

Where'd do go, Dad? And why'd you have to leave?

I wish you could seen the people reaching out to say

How you helped them, and that's including me

You've changed my life forever dad

I love you, rest in peace


[Chorus]

Seasons changing like the wind

Where it starts is where it ends

Life was better with you in it

Memories are everything

Seasons changing like the wind (Seasons change)

Where it starts is where it ends

Life was better with you in it

Memories are everything


[Verse 2]

Dear Dad, I can't believe you're gone

I can't conceive the thought of God or even moving on

But I missed you, I really hope you saw

The tribute video I put together with your song

It was awesome, but fuck it, how's your mom?

I knew you had some catching up to do when you got home

Now you're happy, man what the hell is wrong?

I never thought you'd die, I cry myself to sleep a lot

Life is over, I'm lonely and it's cold

I wish to God I had another day for you to call

'Cause I'd answer, I really miss our talks

I miss your voice and optimism when you had a thought

God, it's gone now, I have to carry on

The vision that you had I need to do but God, it's hard

Cause without you, I'm missing half my heart

I feel your presence every day, I miss you, God it's not getting better

I'm trying when I write the letters

Bridgette's helping me, Dad, I'm really glad I met her

Cause without her, I really couldn't keep my head up

I wouldn't get my ass up out of bed and die instead of

Moving on, but Dad I'm never gonna leave

I'll always need to hear your voice and maybe that's the thing

That'll keep me on pace to be the man I need

To be to make you proud, I really hope you're proud of me


[Chorus]

Seasons changing like the wind

Where it starts is where it ends

Life was better with you in it

Memories are everything

Seasons changing like the wind (Seasons change)

Where it starts is where it ends

Life was better with you in it

Memories are everything
