They say memories are golden,
Well maybe that is true,
But we never wanted memories,
We only wanted you.
A million times we've needed you,
a million times we've cried.
If love alone could have saved you,
you never would have died.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still.
In our hearts you hold a special place;
no one else could ever fill.
If tears could build a staircase,
And heartache build a lane,
We’d walk the path to Heaven,
And bring you back again.
Our family chain is broken
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.
