The years may come, the years may go,
I could never forget how I loved you so
With each day I remember anew,
Those precious years I spent with you.
I never thought that loneliness
Could bring such bitter pain,
That memories could hurt me so
And wound my heart again.
Yet even in despair I know
That every tear I shed,
Would grieve the heart that loved me so,
So I will try to smile instead.
Each day we think about you
And realise you have gone,
We can't explain the emptiness
That life has now become.
They say that time's a healer,
But we are not too sure,
For every time we think of you
We miss you more and more.
The happy hours we once enjoyed,
How sweet their memory still,
But losing you has left a space,
This world can never fill.
Our thoughts are with you on this day,
Happy memories come to mind
Of one we loved with all our hearts
And will till the end of time.
The world may change from year to year,
And friends from day to day,
But sweet memories of you
Will never fade away.
Thoughts go back to happy days
When we were all together,
The family chain is broken now,
But memories live forever.
Although our loved ones are out of sight
They are never out of mind,
For they are cherished in the hearts
Of the ones they left behind.
When we are in need of comfort
We walk down memory lane,
There we see you smiling
We talk with you again,
And as we wander slowly back
We seem to hear you say
Don't grieve. don't cry, my family,
We'll meet again some day.
Memory is a loving thing
It lasts the longest day
It can never be spent,
Never be lent,
Never be taken away.
No words can tell, no flowers repay,
The loss we had one year today
Till memories fail and life departs,
You will live forever in our hearts.
If roses grow in Heaven, Lord,
Then pick a bunch for us
And place them in our (name)'s arms
And tell her/him they're from us.
Not one day passes Son
That we don't think of you,
Our broken hearts will never heal,
But your memory pulls us through.
How constantly we think of you,
With hearts and eyes that fill,
The love in life we had for you,
In death grows stronger still.
Let the winds of love blow softly
And whisper for you to hear,
We love and miss you sadly, as
It dawns another year.
Three years ago God took you, Mum,
He took my closest friend,
And left me with a broken heart,
I know will never mend.
