elevated VVP6Y A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated VVP6Y Hard working hands at rest,

elevated VVP6Y It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated VVP6Y God only takes the best.

elevated VVP6Y They say that memories are golden,

elevated VVP6Y Well maybe that is true,

elevated VVP6Y But we never wanted memories,

elevated VVP6Y We only wanted you,

elevated VVP6Y Your life was love and labour,

elevated VVP6Y Your love for your family true,

elevated VVP6Y You did your best for all of us,

elevated VVP6Y We will always remember you.

elevated VVP6Y We sat beside your bedside,

elevated VVP6Y Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated VVP6Y We did our duty to the end,

elevated VVP6Y ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated VVP6Y In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated VVP6Y We watched you fade away,

elevated VVP6Y And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated VVP6Y We know you could not stay.

elevated VVP6Y Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated VVP6Y Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated VVP6Y But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated VVP6Y In our heart you will always stay.
