Analysis of Sandy



when times were tough and nights were long
you made me feel like i really belong
you were a friend, and simetimes, adviser
and in my marriage you made me wiser
the love i have for your daughter is true
but i couldnt have made it without you
you were a wonderful person, who always showed you care
for you to be taken like you were, just doesnt seem fair
so thank you sandy, for always being true
and never forget that we all love you
