He used to hang out with me in the shop and felt so important when I had him "help" me build things. Those magical days of his childhood are long gone.

I thank God for the time we spent together working on projects in his youth. Should he have grandkids, you know where they will spend time with me...making magic in the shop, of course!
OP, under no circumstances should you listen to this song, you'll be emotionally-devastated, just like millions of weeping listeners before you.
