Teddy

Teddy, you were a simple man

Always reaching out to hold my hand

You never needed the world to see

Just how thoughtful you could be

I loved you dearly, I love you still

And I promise you I always will

Oh, I miss you more than words can say

I carry your memory every day

From the bingo hall when the numbers rolled

To the sweetest days getting gray and old

Taking the grandkids out to the pen

To feed the chickens all over again

Teddy, my husband, my closest friend

I know I'm gonna see you again

I still picture the morning sun

Watching the little ones laugh and run

You'd hand them a bucket of scattered grain

I'd give anything for those days again

You had a quiet way of showing you cared

In every single moment that we shared

Oh, I miss you more than words can say

I carry your memory every day

From the bingo hall when the numbers rolled

To the sweetest days getting gray and old

Taking the grandkids out to the pen

To feed the chickens all over again

Teddy, my husband, my closest friend

I know I'm gonna see you again

The house is still and the evenings are long

But the love you left me keeps me strong

I wipe my tears and I look at the sky

Knowing a bond like ours doesn't die

'Cause I miss you more than words can say

I love you so much, every single day

From the bingo hall when the numbers rolled

To the sweetest days getting gray and old

Taking the grandkids out to the pen

To feed the chickens all over again

Teddy, my husband, my closest friend

I know I'm gonna see you again
