Tristan

You came into my world, a rainbow in my life

A strong and simple man, away from all the strife

For thirty-three and a half years, we shared this quiet home

I never thought I'd see the day you'd walk away alone

You kept the old commandment, to honor and respect

A devoted baby boy, with a love I won't forget

Oh, Tristan, my door is always open wide

My heart is waiting right here on the inside

Though the days go by and we are far apart

The light still burns so bright for you inside my heart

I'm living in the hope that someday you will see

My prayers will never cease, and my love is always free

It’s been over two years since the heavy silence fell

When outside voices whispered and broke our quiet spell

I watched your gentle heart begin to pull away

Now I navigate the healing, taking it day by day

I try to keep on moving, but the memories remain

Of the loving son I held before the sudden pain

Oh, Tristan, my door is always open wide

My heart is waiting right here on the inside

Though the days go by and we are far apart

The light still burns so bright for you inside my heart

I'm living in the hope that someday you will see

My prayers will never cease, and my love is always free

No matter what was spoken, no matter where you roam

This house will always be your safe and quiet home

I won't let the shadows put out the burning flame

Every night I fold my hands and softly speak your name

Oh, Tristan, my door is always open wide

My heart is waiting right here on the inside

Though the seasons change and we are far apart

The light still burns so bright for you inside my heart

I'm living in the hope that someday you will see

My prayers will never cease, and my love is always free

Yes, my door is always open, whenever you need me
