A heart of gold stopped beating
Two shiny eyes at rest
God broke our hearts to prove
He only takes the best
God knows you had to leave us
But you did not go alone
For parts of us were with you
The day He took you home!
To some you are forgotten
Others just part of the past
But to us who loved and lost you
Your memory will always last.
