If Words Could Bring a Twinkle Back

If hugs could bring you back to us And kisses bring a smile We'd smother you with lots of love We'd go that extra mile If words could bring a twinkle back to your eyes so far away We'd talk and sing about your life We'd read to you and pray If holding your hand and touching your cheek could bring back the memories gone by We'd do all these things and much more for you We'd give it our best prayerful try But your mind is in a distant place Your soul on Angle's wings Your spirit floats on memories Your voice no longer sings You've lived a life so full of love You've lived a life that's good You dedicated your life to family You did all that you should So fly above the clouds so high Feel the breeze upon your face Welcome Angels at your door Bow down to God's full Grace Your spirit lives within us all Your joy and laughter too Soon eyes will get their twinkle back But ours will be deep blue
