elevated wYa6J A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated wYa6J Hard working hands at rest,

elevated wYa6J It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated wYa6J God only takes the best.

elevated wYa6J They say that memories are golden,

elevated wYa6J Well maybe that is true,

elevated wYa6J But we never wanted memories,

elevated wYa6J We only wanted you,

elevated wYa6J Your life was love and labour,

elevated wYa6J Your love for your family true,

elevated wYa6J You did your best for all of us,

elevated wYa6J We will always remember you.

elevated wYa6J We sat beside your bedside,

elevated wYa6J Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated wYa6J We did our duty to the end,

elevated wYa6J ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated wYa6J In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated wYa6J We watched you fade away,

elevated wYa6J And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated wYa6J We know you could not stay.

elevated wYa6J Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated wYa6J Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated wYa6J But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated wYa6J In our heart you will always stay.
