Missing Pat




I hear this song every now and then and its you I think of.  And maybe its the rainy weather or the coming anniversary of our loss, but lately... I miss you something fierce.  I feel that empty space a little more, I think of you every day but today it hurts a lot more than it has in a long time.  . Forever I will miss you and I will hold you in my heart and my thoughts.

The Parting Glass

Of all the money e'er I had,
I spent it in good company.
And all the harm e'er I've done,
Alas! it was to none but me.
And all I've done for want of wit
To mem'ry now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all.
Chorus: Some Versions Omit
So fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate'er befalls
Then gently rise and softly call
"Good night and joy be to you all"
Oh, all the comrades e'er I had,
They're sorry for my going away,
And all the sweethearts e'er I had,
They'd wish me one more day to stay,
But since it falls unto my lot,
That I should rise and you should not,
I gently rise and softly call,
Good night and joy be with you all.
