A million times we’ve
thought of you
A million times we’ve cried,
if love could have saved you,
You never would have died.
In life, we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still.
For in our hearts,
you hold a place,
That no one else can fill.
It hrohe our hearts
to lose you,
You did not go alone.
For a hig part of us
