O But For the Memory of You
O but for the memory of you
O but for my heart
O but for the hours of the day
when we must be apart
O but for the quirk of your smile
your laughter full and round
O but for the love in your heart
which turned my world upside down
O but for the kindness of you
with no one around to see
O but for the wonder of you
and what you meant to me
O but for beauty of you
and what you brought to each day
And O but for the absence of you
since you went away
