Part of me

(Verse 1)

I see your chair, it's still right there

By the window where you used to stare

At Sunday skies and little things

Like birds that fly or doorbell rings

Your coffee mug is gathering dust

But letting go feels like a bust

(Chorus)

You're gone, but you're still my home

In the silence, I’m not alone

Your voice still lives in every room

Your laugh still breaks the quiet gloom

You left, but you never really did

You're in every word, every tear I hid

(Verse 2)

The radio plays your favorite song

And for a moment, it feels so wrong

That I can’t call, can’t hear you say

“You'll be alright, just take the day”

Your old coat still hangs in the hall

I swear sometimes I hear you call

(Chorus)

You're gone, but you're still my home

In my heart, your roots have grown

Your stories still guide me through

The broken days I walk into

You left, but you never really did

You're in every win, every time I slid

(Bridge)

I talk to you in whispered prayer

In quiet rooms, I know you’re there

Your strength, your love—it lingers still

Like autumn air that gives a chill

(Final Chorus)

You’re gone, but you’re still my home

No matter where in life I roam

A father’s love doesn’t disappear

It stays, it shines, it draws me near

And even when I stand alone,

You're the reason I’ve grown

[Outro)

So I’ll carry you in all I do

Dad, a part of me is always you
