No Trace (Dedicated To Her Memory)
She’s gone, there’s no Trace
No more leather, no more lace
No alluring smile upon her face
He took her and left me with no Trace
A dark and troubled life she’d led
The hidden tears dark eyes had shed
Dangerous waters she had tread
Today I found out Trace was dead
Tough and hard, the role she’d played
Of nothing, she said, was she afraid
But when all her cards had been laid
Twas a tender heart God had made
A sister’s love we had shared
To each other souls were bared
Standing by her when no one dared
Staying with me when no one cared
Now she’s gone, I have no Trace
No long black hair falling ‘cross her face
In heaven now, a better place
Leaving me here without a Trace
I’ll miss you…
