“Drowning” by Chris Young

“Still got your number in my phone,

And even though you don’t know I listen

I still call and wait ‘til the tone

Just to hear you saying, ‘Leave a message,’

Since you’ve been gone I’ve had to find

Different ways to grieve;

There’s days that I don’t even want it on my mind,

But tonight I’m weak.

So, I’m gonna pull out pictures, ones with you in ‘em,

Laugh and cry a little while reminiscing.

By myself.

I can’t help

That all I think about is

How you were taken way too soon.

It ain’t the same here without you.

I gotta say, missing you comes in waves,

And tonight I’m drowning.

Yeah, I know you’re in a better place,

And one day I’ll see you again.

But it’s killing me we can’t be face to face.

I miss my best friend.

So, tonight I’m gonna pull out pictures, ones with you in ‘em,

Laugh and cry a little while reminiscing.

By myself.

I can’t help

That all I think about is

How you were taken way too soon.

It ain’t the same here without you.

I gotta say, missing you comes in waves,

And tonight I’m drowning.

Yeah, tonight I’m drowning.

I know it’s a part of life,

But I wasn’t ready to say goodbye.”

Randy, there’s not a day that goes by that you’re not thought of and loved. You are missed so dearly by Ryan, Connor, Cory, and me, and so many loving family members and friends. Sometimes we cry, sometimes we laugh, and sometimes we do both. You touched so very many people with your kindness, the generosity of your heart, your laughter, and your smile.

We love you so very much — until we meet again. All our love — Katherine, Ryan, Connor, and Cory
