elevated qKoQu A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated qKoQu Hard working hands at rest,

elevated qKoQu It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated qKoQu God only takes the best.

elevated qKoQu They say that memories are golden,

elevated qKoQu Well maybe that is true,

elevated qKoQu But we never wanted memories,

elevated qKoQu We only wanted you,

elevated qKoQu Your life was love and labour,

elevated qKoQu Your love for your family true,

elevated qKoQu You did your best for all of us,

elevated qKoQu We will always remember you.

elevated qKoQu We sat beside your bedside,

elevated qKoQu Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated qKoQu We did our duty to the end,

elevated qKoQu ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated qKoQu In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated qKoQu We watched you fade away,

elevated qKoQu And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated qKoQu We know you could not stay.

elevated qKoQu Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated qKoQu Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated qKoQu But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated qKoQu In our heart you will always stay.
