"Ryan's Song" lyrics

2006
Just six years old
Alone in my room
I didn't know
Dad sat me down
Top of the stairs
Told me you'd no longer be there
The oldest of four
The first one to go
Just 21 when the Lord called you home

I wish I knew
More about you
Did you love Jesus
And fishing and old cowboy boots
That sweet guitar playin' on neon moon
There's so many things that I ask you if you weren't so far
Just to know who you are

Now I'm 25
You'd be 38
Would you like the kind of guys that I date
I wish I had memories of you in my head
Now all that I have is what might of been

I wish I knew
More about you
Did you love Jesus
And fishing and old cowboy boots
That sweet guitar playin' on neon moon
There's so many things that I ask you if you weren't so far
Just to know who you are

Would you be proud of me using your name
Singing my songs up on this stage

I wish I knew
More about you
Did you love Jesus
And fishing and old cowboy boots
That sweet guitar playin' on neon moon
There's so many things that I ask you if you weren't so far
Just to know who you are
