Viva La Antoinnette
Chorus:
You look beautiful in white
Like you did that one starry night
I don’t know you that well-
Never knew you well,
But you’re a part of who I am.
Verse 1
Here, we gather
To give a final farewell
I’ll lay a flower, on the bough-
Of your grave-
And hope it roots into the soil.
Gone, but not forgotten
Loved, by so many who could tell
That one soul, heart of gold,
Could touch so many lives-
All the same.
Chorus
You look beautiful in white
Like you did that one starry night
I don’t know you that well-
Never knew you well,
But you’re a part of who I am.
Verse 2
So now, take flight
Don’t be scared as you soar the endless sky
And down here I’ll shed a tear
But hold each moment near,
And never let go.
I hear you in the shadows-
Of my mind, sometimes
And you tell me you’re doing fine
That there’s bliss, in the midst
And if I dream of you tonight
I’ll see you there-
I’ll see you again
Chorus
You look beautiful in white
Like you did that one starry night
I don’t know you that well-
Never knew you well,
But you’re a part of who I am
I thought of you today
As I think every day,
Of the time that we shared
And I still miss you now
Like I missed you then...
You look beautiful in white
Like you did that one starry night
I don’t know you that well-
Never knew you well,
But you’re a part of who I am.

Had to say farewell to my last living grand parent March of 2016 and it took a long time for me to accept that.
