elevated DeCYg A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated DeCYg Hard working hands at rest,

elevated DeCYg It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated DeCYg God only takes the best.

elevated DeCYg They say that memories are golden,

elevated DeCYg Well maybe that is true,

elevated DeCYg But we never wanted memories,

elevated DeCYg We only wanted you,

elevated DeCYg Your life was love and labour,

elevated DeCYg Your love for your family true,

elevated DeCYg You did your best for all of us,

elevated DeCYg We will always remember you.

elevated DeCYg We sat beside your bedside,

elevated DeCYg Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated DeCYg We did our duty to the end,

elevated DeCYg ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated DeCYg In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated DeCYg We watched you fade away,

elevated DeCYg And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated DeCYg We know you could not stay.

elevated DeCYg Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated DeCYg Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated DeCYg But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated DeCYg In our heart you will always stay.
