+ good man +

First anniversary, remember we, chose a star.

But as I stand under it, I can't help but wonder if you see it where you are. For whatever reason, we don't see the seasons change again.

Go there with peace of mind, we'll meet on the other side 'cause true love don't end.

Now baby,

If the sun comes up and you're not home, I'll be strong. if you're not beside me, I'll do my best to carry on. I'll tell the kids about you, when they're old enough to understand.

Tell them that their daddy was a good man.

Two eyes, looking up at me, pointing to the picture like "where is he?" "mama are you okay, what did the paper say to make you cry that way?"

it said, "your daddy lived for you, your daddy died for you and I'll do the same."

Now baby if the sun comes up, and I'm not home be strong.

If I'm not beside you, do your best to carry on. Tell your kids about me when they're old enough to understand.

Tell them that your daddy was a good man...

good man, India Arie
