elevated ZSz2E A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated ZSz2E Hard working hands at rest,

elevated ZSz2E It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated ZSz2E God only takes the best.

elevated ZSz2E They say that memories are golden,

elevated ZSz2E Well maybe that is true,

elevated ZSz2E But we never wanted memories,

elevated ZSz2E We only wanted you,

elevated ZSz2E Your life was love and labour,

elevated ZSz2E Your love for your family true,

elevated ZSz2E You did your best for all of us,

elevated ZSz2E We will always remember you.

elevated ZSz2E We sat beside your bedside,

elevated ZSz2E Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated ZSz2E We did our duty to the end,

elevated ZSz2E ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated ZSz2E In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated ZSz2E We watched you fade away,

elevated ZSz2E And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated ZSz2E We know you could not stay.

elevated ZSz2E Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated ZSz2E Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated ZSz2E But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated ZSz2E In our heart you will always stay.
