If We Could

In memory of: Tresa Ilene Collins In God your soul shall rest If We Could If we could bring back yesterday Turn back the hands, rewind Would decisions made be different? Could we change our thoughts of mind? If we could bring back yesterday, Would the rise of suns remain? Could we capture all its beauty? But leave behind the pain? For years you’ve shown your loyalty Your integrity… and your grace The void you left stays open There’s no one to fill your space Sometime it’s hard to fathom What one person must endure Still the needs of those came first To find who you could be there for There aren’t many people in this room You have not helped Or have had a kind to say That smile of radiance you shared with all Left with you that day All we have now are memories To give us something to look forward to It’s always hard to say goodbye Tresa, we are simply missing you So now… Heaven holds your destiny And all there is that’s best You have received your invitation In God your soul shall rest Yes… We have been given an angel And though it’s hard we cannot fuss But if I… If I could bring back yesterday I would bring you back to us Eric Douglas Beard
