(原詩)

Junior's eyes looked up
To the skies in tears
He prayed that his maker,
The giver and taker, would hear
Junior sighed as his hands
Reached out to the sky
Junior cried the day
That his best friend died

You're coming home again tomorrow
I'm sorry it won't be for long
With all the pain
I've watched you live within
I'll try my hardest not to cry
When it is time to say goodbye

Junior's eyes, they couldn't
Disguise the pain
His father was leaving and
Junior's grieving again
Innocent eyes watched
The man who gave everything
Junior's sorrow, he knew
What tomorrow would bring

They're coming home again tomorrow
I'm sorry it won't be for long
With all the pain
I've watched you live within
I'll try my hardest not to cry
When it is time to say goodbye

(interlude)

Junior's eyes looked
Into the skies once more
Now he knew well,
This life was hell for sure
He desperately tried, his fingertips
Stretched to the stars, yeah
Reaching for reason,
Along with the time and the scars

You're coming home again tomorrow
I'm sorry it won't be for long
With all the pain
I've watched you live within
I'll try my hardest not to cry
When it is time to say goodbye
