big bowl in the sky

this one's for my best friend

we never spoke a word

but the way he looked into my eyes

i knew he understood

grabbing on so tight

like nothing matters more

my handsome little scaly guy

my pretty baby boy

and i don't wanna have to miss you

i don't wanna have to say goodbye

i don't wanna have to leave you

to the big bowl in the sky

so lucky that you were mine

put your pjs on for one last time

and i'm really gonna miss you

rest easy little guy

rushing home from school

couldn't stand to be alone

but this year i had someone there

with you i had a home

if i'm friends with everyone

or have nobody at all

you helped me see that either way

there's a place where i belong

i don't wanna have to miss you

i don't wanna have to say goodbye

i don't wanna have to leave you

to the big bowl in the sky

though it's crushing down on me

we both know it's what you need

but i'm really gonna miss you

so rest easy buddy

yeah i'm really gonna miss you

rest easy for me
