I stumbled onto this song after not being quick enough on returning a CD that BMG sent me. It’s by Avril Lavigne, and trust me, I know how goofy it looks for a 32-year-old to be quoting songs by a punk-ish teeny-bopper.

She wrote this song about the death of her grandfather, and I thought it was beautiful. If you’ve ever lost someone, I’m sure you’ll be able to relate to it.

Oh, and I’ve removed the “na na na” parts, because it’s weird to read those, I think.

I miss you

Miss you so bad

I don’t forget you

Oh it’s so sad

I hope you can hear me

I remember it clearly

[Chorus]

The day you slipped away

Was the day I found it won’t be the same oh

I didn’t get around to kiss you

Goodbye on the hand

I wish that I could see you again

I know that I can’t oh oh oh oh oh

I hope you can hear me

Cause I remember it clearly

[Chorus]

I’ve had my wake up

Won’t you wake up

I keep asking why

And I can’t take it

It wasn’t fake it

It happened you passed by

Now you’re gone

Now you’re gone

There you go

There you go

Somewhere I can’t bring you back

Now you’re gone

Now you’re gone

There you go

There you go

Somehow you’re not coming back

[Chorus x 2]

I miss you
