Empty Years
An angel took him by the hand
Into the light he went.
An end to pain and suffering
His mortal coil now spent.
His final thoughts of her,
He would see his wife again.
They were empty years without her
But how his love remained.
So gladly, he surrendered
He cast off these earthly ties.
He'd hold her in his arms once more,
He'd look into her eyes.
