You gave me life
you gave me
hope
you saw the future
you strove
to make it real
the most
I saw you do this
I held on
tight
I walked behind you
I tugged a little
at
your coat
Now grown
we walk together
now
we’ve seen the fruition
of
all our planning
striving, hope
The Light
We’ll smile
that
we made it
we’ll laugh and cry
for
we are together
resting quietly
up
in the blue, blue sky.

Tenderly, I think of you
For the world was right
When I could hold you
With no forsaken thoughts
On my mind
As we laughed and talked
And oh so tender
Were those thoughts.
Tenderly, I think of you
You were my world
You gave me life
You showed me how
To navigate throughout
Any cursed strife
To hold on, to believe
For you gave me love
Tenderly.
