Arriving in a bolt of light with beauty wit and charm
Cradled to their family’s breast where they never came to harm
Striving to be something while always seeing love
Beautiful young flowers, gentle like a dove
They’ll be forever laughing bathed in a summer moon
It wasn’t that they hadn’t lived
They just left us far too soon
Life’s a great adventure grabbed with eager hands
Like an everlasting summer day of blue oceans and golden sands
Striving to be something while all the time they are
Striking out on life’s great path without ever going far
They’ll be forever dancing in the summertime in June
It wasn’t that they hadn’t lived
They just left us far too soon
We weep upon their leaving and grieve that they have gone
But rejoice that they have been here and know that they live on
In the memories of all they knew where they will forever stay
Like everlasting flowers growing brighter every day
They’ll be forever singing golden melodies in tune
It wasn’t that they hadn’t lived
They just left us far too soon
