Kirk

Keys in the ignition, the music turned up loud

Driving in your Mustang, far away from the crowd

Heading for the beach to chase the setting sun

You loved the life you lived, you cared for everyone

I still feel you here with me, lingering in the room

I pick up the phone to call you, wishing I could talk to you

I just want to hear your voice, I miss you dearly, Kirk

You made sure I felt your love in every single word

You'd shake your head and smile, and always make me laugh

Saying "I'm getting too old for this" when time was moving fast

You had a passion for the canvas, the colors you would blend

Sharing all those paintings with your family and friends

I still feel you here with me, lingering in the room

I pick up the phone to call you, wishing I could talk to you

I just want to hear your voice, I miss you dearly, Kirk

You made sure I felt your love in every single word

You were patient, you were kind, a gentle, steady light

You always made me know I'm loved before we said goodnight

I hold onto the memories, the ocean and the art

My husband and my safe place, the center of my heart

I still feel you here with me, lingering in the room

I pick up the phone to call you, wishing I could talk to you

I just want to hear your voice, I miss you dearly, Kirk

You made sure I felt your love in every single word

I still feel you here with me, I miss you dearly, Kirk
