You Must Have Been Great

I never saw your face

Never heard you speak

All I heard were stories

of beautiful memories

They tell me you were smart

that you had a great heart

To know I'll never meet you is hard

And even if you left too soon

I hope you hear me when I sing to you

You must have been great

Must have been great

You must have had visions and dreams and faith

You must have been great

Must have been great

I'm sorry we never met before

You slipped away

I've heard you were quite hard on yourself

But when you were needed

you'd always help

There's just so little I know about your life

But deep inside my heart

You survived

You must have been great

Must have been great

You must have had visions and dreams and faith

You must have been great

Must have been great

I'm sorry we never met before

You slipped away

You must have been so strong

Must have loved your family

And I feel there's so much of you

Living on in me

And I believe

You're looking down on us

And even if we'll never meet I will

Always feel your love

You must have been great

Must have been great

You must have had visions and dreams and faith

You must have been great

Must have been great

I'm sorry we never met before

You slipped away
