when i was born i was given a godfather
and i loved him much, i was his goddaughter
him and my dad were the best of friends
for a long time, since they were kids

may 17th, 2005 my dad died while jamie was in jail
jamie couldnt go to his funeral because he had no bail
i bet it broke jamies heart not to be there
and he wanted everybody know that still, he cared

times have passed, as everyone fears
minutes turn hours, hours into days, days into months and
months into years
jamies out of jail, hes not locked up
he finally made it out, he didnt give up

even though jamies not blood, i consider him my uncle
our bond is forever sweet, like a honeysuckle
on april 21st, 2009 something tragic happened that made me
cry
who knew it would be my uncle jamies turn to die?

hes leaving me, just like my dad
i hate this world, it makes me mad 
though ill never forget, he is my godfather
and still, im his precious goddaughter
