I go to the church,I stand by your grave I stare at the grass & I know Beneath there lies a little white box It's my world that is buried below The best years of my life Were way back then When I still had you When I had my Ben My heart & my soul went with you that day the day the Angels came & took you away I'll carry on the best that I can For I'll always miss my brave little man The best years of my life Were way back then When I still had you When I still had my Ben I hold onto your teddy each night in my bed While memories of you race around in my head The pain that I feel never ceases My heart is broken in a million pieces The best years of my life Were way back then When I still had you When I still had my Ben Each day that I cry & I still ask why Why did you have to go I know that you're safe with Jesus now But Ben I still miss you so The best years of my life Were way back then When I still had you When I still had my Ben I trust in the promise that Jesus made That we will be together again someday To see your face when I leave this life Every night for this I pray The best years of my life Were way back then When I still had you My precious grandson Ben
