Lyrics
It was so hard when we heard the news
that the one that we love so much had left us so soon
It didn't make sense, it still doesn't now
But we gather fond memories and share them somehow
'Cause this is what we want you to know.
You are a gift to us.
Your life and your laugh that we love so much.
You are a gift and that's why we smile when we cry
Goodbye.
You lit up the room whenever you walked in
Now the memories of you shine through our darkness within
though our hearts are heavy they somehow take flight
as we ponder the life you lived that we celebrate
This blessing we were honored to know.
You are a gift to us.
Your life and your laugh that we love so much.
You are a gift and that's why we smile when we cry
You are a gift to us.
Your life and your laugh that we miss so much.
You are a gift and that's why we smile when we cry
That's why we smile when we cry
Goodbye.
