elevated 12zTK A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated 12zTK Hard working hands at rest,

elevated 12zTK It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated 12zTK God only takes the best.

elevated 12zTK They say that memories are golden,

elevated 12zTK Well maybe that is true,

elevated 12zTK But we never wanted memories,

elevated 12zTK We only wanted you,

elevated 12zTK Your life was love and labour,

elevated 12zTK Your love for your family true,

elevated 12zTK You did your best for all of us,

elevated 12zTK We will always remember you.

elevated 12zTK We sat beside your bedside,

elevated 12zTK Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated 12zTK We did our duty to the end,

elevated 12zTK ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated 12zTK In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated 12zTK We watched you fade away,

elevated 12zTK And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated 12zTK We know you could not stay.

elevated 12zTK Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated 12zTK Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated 12zTK But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated 12zTK In our heart you will always stay.
