I guess I'll miss the man

Explain it if you can

His face was far from fine

But still I'll miss his face

And wonder if he's missing mine

Some days he wouldn't say

A pleasant word all day

Some days he'd scowl and curse

But there were other days

When he was really even worse

Some men are heroes

Some men outshine the sun

Some men are simple, good men

This man wasn't one

And I won't miss his moods

His gloomy solitudes

His blunt abrasive style

But please don't get me wrong

He was the best to come along

In a long, long while
