Song I wrote

Hey, i added this to the song writing contest, I wrote it for my dad over a year ago and happened to come by it, i wrote this a week after he died to get my mind off it, I put some chords together from and it sounded good, I can get a recording on here later, but anyway.

The colors of your world were so black and white,
but somehow you managed a rainbow of light.
Your the diamond in the rough
A star in the sky
And everyone around you is wondering why?

And even though your not here, even though your gone,
You will always be near, because your spirit lives on

And its the way that you laughed,
And the way that you smiled.
Even though you were only
Here for a while
You lived every day of your life.
Through the pain and strife.
You opened our eyes so that we would see,
Your everything a HERO oughta be.

Your middle name was courage,
You had no fear
Whenever someone asked you,
You always made it clear
You weren't gonna let this
Get you down
You lived everyday without a frown

And even though your not here, even though your gone,
You will always be near, because your spirit lives on

And its the way that you laughed,
And the way that you smiled.
Even though you were only
Here for a while
You lived every day of your life.
Through the pain and strife.
You opened our eyes so that we would see,
Your everything a hero oughta be.

Theres something about this
That gives us hope
Theres a light in the tunnel
And we all know.
So many people miss you
This isn't goodbye
Someday we'll be with you
We'll meet you in the sky
