Bye Bye

This is for my peoples who just lost somebody,
Your best friend, your baby, your man, or your lady
Put you hand way up high
You will never say bye.
(no no no)
Momma's, daddy's, sister's, brother's,
Friends, and cousins.
This is for my people's who lost their
Grandmothers
Lift your head up to the sky
'Cause we will never say bye.

As a child, there were them times
I didn't get it, but you kept me inline
I didn't know
Why you didn't show up sometimes
On Sunday mornings
And I missed you, but what we talked through
All them grown folk things, separation brings
You never let me know it, you never let it show
Because you loved me
And so much more then to say
If you were with me today
Face to face.

I never knew I can hurt like this
And everyday life goes on like
I wish I can talk to you for a while
Wish you but try not to cry
As time goes bye

And I'm sure you reached a better place
And still I'd give
The world to see your face
Me right here, next to you
But it's like your gone too soon
Now the hardest thing to do is say
Bye, bye-bye
Bye-bye
Bye-bye bye-bye bye-bye
Bye-bye bye-bye bye-bye
Bye-bye bye-bye bye-bye

And you never got a chance to see
How good I've done
And you never got to see me
Back at number one
I wish that you was here to celebrate together
I wish that we can spend the holidays together
I remember when you use to tuck me in at night
Or the teddy bear you give me I held so tight
I thought you were so strong,
You make it through whatever
Its so hard to accept the fact you gone forever

I never knew I can hurt like this
And everyday life goes on like this
I wish I can talk to you for a while
I miss you but I try not to wish
As time goes by

And I'm sure you reached a better place
And I'd still give
The world is in your face
Me right here, next to you
But it's like your gone too soon
Now the hardest thing to do is say
Bye, bye-bye
Bye-bye
Bye-bye bye-bye bye-bye
Bye-bye bye-bye bye-bye
Bye-bye bye-bye bye-bye

This is for my peoples who just lost somebody,
Your best friend, your baby, your man, or your lady
Put you hand way up high
You will never say bye.
(No no no)
Momma's, daddy's, sister's, brother's,
Friends, and cousins.
This is for my people's who lost their grandmothers
Lift your head up to the sky
'Cause we will never say bye.

I never knew I can hurt like this
(I never knew it)
And everyday (everyday I wish that I)
Life goes on like this (I wish, I wish)
I wish I can talk to you for a while
(I wish)
I miss you but I try not to wish
(I wish)
As time goes by
(as time goes bye)

And I'm sure you reached a better place
I'd still give the world to see your face
And me right here, next to you
And the hardest thing to do
Is say
Bye-bye
Its hard to say
Bye bye bye bye bye
So come on
Somebody sing it with me
Wave your hands up high

'Cause this is for my peoples that
Just lost somebody
This is for everybody
Just lift your head to the sky
'Cause we will never say bye-bye
