lyrics

You keep smiling in your heart, spread your ashes where we will,
And you left your son so soon mate, so young to lose
We're all gathered in your room today, just remember your place and your calming face,
I will stand and you will stand here next to me

And I will miss you every day,
and your daughters will go on with grace for you,
just to see your wildest smile in face,
just to see your wife's smile in place for you

And I will miss you every day,
yeah your calming warm heart,
and your daughters will go on with grace,
just to see your wife's smile,
And I will miss you every day,
and your daughters will go on with grace for you,
just to see your wildest smile in face,
just to see your wife's smile in face for you
