I was only five when she died but I remember Lisa very vividly.<\/p>\n

I remember details of of her funeral<\/a> that I wish I could forget.<\/p>\n

\"Lisa

Lisa is in the white coat. 11 months before she died.<\/p><\/div>\n

She died of an aneurysm 29 years ago today (11\/11).<\/p>\n

She was only 18. She was a newlywed.<\/p>\n

\"Mom,

Mom, 2 of my other sisters and 5 year old me with Lisa just a month before she died. I *think* this was the last time I saw her alive.<\/p><\/div>\n

When I turned 19 i felt so so sad. I was older than my big sister.<\/p>\n

Kenny Chesnee has a song called “Who You’d be Today”.<\/p>\n

I think of her every time I hear it. Especially when he says I wonder what you would’ve named your babies.<\/p>\n

She would have made beautuful babies.<\/p>\n

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
\nI wear the pain like a heavy coat.
\nI feel you everywhere I go.
\nI see your smile, I see your face,
\nI hear you laughin’ in the rain.
\nI still can’t believe you’re gone.<\/p>\n

It ain’t fair: you died too young,
\nLike the story that had just begun,
\nBut death tore the pages all away.
\nGod knows how I miss you,
\nAll the hell that I’ve been through,
\nJust knowin’ no-one could take your place.
\nAn’ sometimes I wonder,
\nWho’d you be today?<\/p>\n

Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams?
\nSettle down with a family,
\nI wonder what would you name your babies?
\nSome days the sky’s so blue,
\nI feel like I can talk to you,
\nAn’ I know it might sound crazy.<\/p>\n

It ain’t fair: you died too young,
\nLike the story that had just begun,
\nBut death tore the pages all away.
\nGod knows how I miss you,
\nAll the hell that I’ve been through,
\nJust knowin’ no-one could take your place.
\nAn’ sometimes I wonder,
\nWho you’d be today?<\/p>\n

Today, today, today.
\nToday, today, today.<\/p>\n

[Instrumental Break]<\/p>\n

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
\nI wear the pain like a heavy coat.
\nThe only thing that gives me hope,
\nIs I know I’ll see you again some day.<\/p>\n

Some day, some day, some day.<\/p>\n
