I was gonna call but it slipped my mind,
You knew I did that from time to time.....
I wasn't mad at you, was in a great mood
Hanging with the wife & kids, eating good food....
Figured I'd go to your house soon & talk about life
Anything from my job to my lovely wife......
You knew I never had my dad and it was a need
You took it upon yourself to lead...
You gave be guidance taught me how to be a man
I hope you know that I did understand...
You felt as my moms brother, it what had to be done
You hugged me several times, like I was your son...
I should have called and I am feeling it now
Man this hurts and I can't even explain how.....
I feel so bad, I just should have made a call
Even for a few minutes, just to talk baseball...
I will never take the ones I love for granted again....
I promise you that until the bitter end....
LOVE YOU UNCLE JOE R.I.P 12/30/07
