I didn't play instruments or sing confidently in 2019, which is when I wrote the first version of this song. Back then, I hired freelance musicians to help me with the project. Since then, a lot has changed, and I wanted to revisit it 100% on my own, with modified lyrics. This song is for my baby sister that passed away at 2 months old. I was 4 at the time.
It’s been days since I said hello
I’m sorry
I did not mean to forget
There’s just so much on my plate
I’ve been busy with work
I’m trying to write some fun songs
And stay in touch with everyone
I swear I will never forget the precious time that we shared
You’re always loved
You’re always loved
I miss you always
It’s been too long since I put flowers on your grave
You deserved so much better
I’ll do my best to be better
I think back to the day I approached your crib
You weren’t there
Mom and Dad weren’t even there
I swear I will never forget the precious time that we shared
You’re always loved
You’re always loved
I miss you always
You passed in the night
There was nothing I could do
I was a four year old
I didn’t know what I should do
And I just want to say
Say that I
I miss you
You’re always loved

That's tragic, man. Glad you could find some expression in music for this.

Sorry for the loss. I am sure she is very happy that you wrote that song for her and also that you sing it with your own voice now. I like it!

First I wanna say I'm so sorry for your loss regardless of how long ago it was. That had to be so hard for your family. I hope everyone is doing well.
That said this song is a wonderful tribute.

Such a sad and sweet song! It's beautiful and shows so much love! Sorry for your loss.

Kudos for this, I would guess it was really hard to do. It’s hard to listen to, but so beautiful. Gorgeous tribute. So sorry for your loss as a wee one! <3

Sorry for the loss of your sister at such a young age. I hope that completing this song yourself brings some kind of closure.
Cool guitar sound.
