Brown 905-662-2948) In tears we saw you sinking We watched you fade away Our hearts were almost broken You fought so hard to stay God saw you getting tired When a cure was not to be He closed His arms around you And whispered "Come to Me". Your golden heart stopped beating Your gentle hands at rest God broke our heart to prove to us He only takes the best But when he saw you sleeping So peacefully from pain We could not wish you back To suffer that again.
