(Performed by Mariah Carey) “BYE BYE” (Performed by Mariah Carey) Narrative Writing https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Family_Portrait.jpg

“BYE BYE” I never knew I could hurt like this (Performed by Mariah Carey) I never knew I could hurt like this This is for my people who just lost somebody And everyday life goes on like
 Your best friend, your baby, your man, or your lady "I wish I could talk to you for a while” Put your hand way up high, we will never say bye Miss you but I try not to cry as time goes by Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins And soon as you reach a better place Still I'd give the world to see your face This is for my people who lost their grandmothers And I'm right here next to you Lift your head to the sky 'cause we will never say bye But it's like you're gone too soon Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye As a child there were them times And you never got the chance I didn't get it
but you kept me in line To see how good I've done I didn't know why you didn't show up sometimes And you never got to see me back at number one On Sunday mornings and I missed you I wish that you were here to celebrate together But I'm glad we talked through I wish that we could spend the holidays together All them grown folk things separation brings I remember when you used to tuck me in at night You never let me know it With the Teddy Bear you gave me that I held so tight You never let it show because you loved me
 I thought you were so strong And obviously there's so much more left to say You'd make it through whatever If you were with me today face to face  It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone forever https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Family_Portrait.jpg
