Though you are gone, there's no despair
Sweet memories I keep
Our child of love
Gift from above
Sweet memories I keep
Our love was strong and it ran deep
The future looked so bright
But Death stepped in
We could not win
The future looked so bright
Eternal bond of love is tight
The joy outweighs the grief
I shed some tears
Allay my fears
The joy outweighs the grief
Our time together was too brief
A love affair so rare
I took a leap
'Cross mountain steep
A love affair so rare
