I'm gonna miss you, I'm gonna miss you

You fought a good fight, may you rest in peace now

You've earned the right, you stood brave and tall

The ultimate price, we honor you now

For God and country, you gave it all

And although I'm proud of all that you stood for

My selfish heart just wants you home

Your family and friends are all so proud of you

But I can't accept the fact that you're gone

And I'm gonna miss you

When the golden sun sinks slowly o'er the crest of yonder hill

I'm gonna miss you

In the wee hours of the mornin' when the world is calm and still

When I can see you, touch you, feel you, hear your heart beating true

Even though you're gone, my love lives on

And I, I'm gonna miss you

I'm gonna miss you

I'm gonna miss you

Your touch, your smell, your kisses, and the comfort of your eyes

I'm gonna miss you

Your laughter, tears, your humor, and that crooked little smile

And I'm gonna miss the plans and dreams we had that never will come true

God wanted you, but I did too

And I, I'm gonna miss you

I'll miss you

And I'll see your face in every star

I'll be lovin' you wherever you are

I'll miss you, god how I'll miss you

While others go on with their lives

And I see you in our children's' eyes

I'll miss you, oh how I'll miss you

I'm gonna miss you, oh I will miss you

Oh how I'll miss you

I'm gonna miss you, forever miss you
