The moment of truth it lies frozen forever,
Deep in the heart like a stone in the soul The news it came through, it told of your leaving. It seems just a few days ago -D Your friends crowding round filled the hallway and garded Searching for words to console, to explain Shaking our hands, “Sorry for your troubles” And each had a kind word to say -D Chorus You will never grow old But you’ll always be growing In our hearts, in our minds In the home you left behind You will never know pain nor the anguish of aging You will always be young and beautiful -G Some plod along down a long road complaining Finding no joy in the wondrous mile But you skipped and sang every hour you were given [But you lived and you loved all the hours you were given] And you filled up our hearts with your smile -D Days turn to years and the tears of lamentation Flow to a place where the waters run clear Turning the tides to a new celebration For a love that will always be here -D Repeat Chorus |
