Reyes Celaya - Alissa lyrics

Alissa, I miss ya and don't think I forgot about ya 'cause every night I think about ya You know the only reason I don't call you is when my phone isn't on but you gotta stay strong for as long as life goes on Just keep your head up high to the sky and don't mourn cuz I'm gone Writing you this song well I know its more like a letter and I'm hopin' everytime you hear it, it makes you feel better I remember when I got taken away from mother because I was in the backseat of her when the officer pulled us over and I guess mom wasn't sober so the cop took me from her That's when Grandpa Floyd tried to get me but he was unsuccessful so Childhaven is where they took me The first foster home I went to my roommate was crazy trying to suffocate me That's when my caseworker Elizabeth found out and took me out The second foster home you and I were in together until my father took me and I went to AZ Thank God that uncle Jeff and Rachel got you and adopted you I dream of the day when all this goes away I remember when Tina went to prison for 4 years all I wanted to do was shed tears, it's true 'cause it was just me and you, I mean look at all the stuff that we've been through Mom smokin' pills in her room and the babysitter getting high up in the bathroom Honey, I'm just sorry that you had to go into the system at a very young age, but don't be like Kelley 'cause he's full of anger and rage Believe me if I could turn back the hands of time I would, back when it was just me, you, mom and Danny Back when we were a happy family But of course everything always happens for a reason and what it is I don't know only God knows You can be anything you wanna be Just as long as you put your mind to it you can do it and don't let no one tell you any different There's no need to tell the whole world that you're a beautiful girl because they can see that with they own eyes so it shouldn't be no surprise I remember when you went from having Bieber fever to One Direction infection If you know anything about me, you'd know that I don't like boy bands Remember when we had to go get stitches in your hand and you asked the doctor if you can see your heart from your hand? I can continue to reminisce on how much I miss you but if I do that this song would be like eight minutes long See my biggest fear is you growing up to be a drug addict or an alcoholic because that's what we were raised around but I know you won't because I know you're smarter than that so turn that frown upside down I just want you to know that I love you and I'll do anything for you, and although we're miles apart you'll always be in my heart Love, your brother, Junior P.S. I could not ask for a better sister You're growin' up on me way to fast! Honey, you're a teenager now wow Take care
