This is a tribute to my father Virgil Floto who crossed over into heaven after losing his battle to stomach cancer! Continue to watch over us dad until we meet again! We love and miss you. ❤️ #jamesblunt
I lost my Father back in 2015, due to cancer. This song makes makes me remember all the good times we had together, and how much I miss him. The last words we spoke to each other was, "I love you".

Hi Les. What a beautiful heartfelt tribute song to your dad. That really hits home. Has he been gone a while? My dad's been gone since 2010. Still really miss him. He was my hero. You sang that just fantastic and I know your dad is smiling down from above and is really proud of you. Thank you for a wonderful performance and take care my friend. Kelly.👍🎸🎶🎵🙏 Big Like #5!
Monsters / Lyrics Oh, before they turn off all the lights I won't read you your wrongs or your rights The time has gone I'll tell you goodnight, close the door Tell you I love you once more The time has gone So here it is I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away Oh, well, I'll read a story to you Only difference is this one is true The time has gone I folded your clothes on the chair I hope you sleep well, don't be scared The time has gone So here it is I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away Sleep a lifetime Yes, and breathe a last word You can feel my hand on your own I will be the last one So I'll leave a light on Let there be no darkness, in your heart But I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away
I play this song like merle would sing it and no offense to the english but i slow everything down we always do in the south but it is still so inspiring and heartfelt
