A very dear friend of Zac's, and my best friend, has written a special song for Zac. We'd like to share it with you.

INTRO CHORUS:
Don't you wish he was comin' home
Don't you wish he was here
Don't you wish he'd open up that door
And this pain would disappear

They made Zac in Oklahoma / broke the mold or so they say
got lost some down in Texas / now Oklahoma's where he'll stay
All that knew him loved him / whether he was right or wrong
'Cause we need lights in darkness / and oh his light was strong

He had a smile for every person / a slap on the back and a "hello"
An old friend or a new one / he never met one he didn't know
His daughter he loved dearly / his mom and dad he loved, as well
Now they mourn him up in Velma / with ev'ry ring of that church bell

CHORUS:
Don't you wish he was comin' home
Don't you wish he was here
Don't you wish he'd open up that door
And instantly appear
Don't you wish he was here right now
Don't you wish he would sing
Don't you wish he'd strike those chords again
And keep living out his dream

Zac's at peace in Oklahoma / laid in the ground today
God we miss him down in Texas / but Oklahoma's where he'll stay
We all knew and loved him / his bull's head made us strong
And his heart gave us forgivness / even when he knew we were wrong

He shook hands with every person / and laughed at every joke
An old yarn or a new tale / you had few he didn't know
His family has now buried him / it's hard to believe he's gone
Though one day the tears will stop / his songs and memory linger on

OUTRO CHORUS:
Don't you wish he was comin' home
Don't you wish he was here
Don't you wish he'd open up that door
And instantly appear
Don't you wish he was here right now
Don't you wish he would sing
Don't you wish he'd strike those chords again
And keep living out his dream
...We all wish he was here right now
so we could hear him sing
but he's now a star on Heaven's stage...
forever living out his dream...
