When all around have gone to sleep And we are so alone We walk the lonely darkened path Where we can be with you. Our thoughts are deep and filled with pain Yet sweet and light with joy We think of times gone by when you Would laugh and cry and sing Your cheeky smile, those dimples deep Your shining big brown eyes We miss you so and cry each day Our hearts break with our loss. Dear lovely boy we never knew Just how many loved you so Your love of life and those With whom you shared Your joy in land so far away. Your friends are lost,now you are gone And cry with us in pain, But eased you're now at peace. What legacy bestowed on all Whose lives you touched dear love; Your music left for all to hear, Forever in our minds. Your intellect & research helped patients, colleagues and more, Yet searching for your own relief Escaped you our dear boy. You chose your exit from this life And left us all bereft
Now we must go home & try to live our lives, as you would want us to But, we're lost, can't find our path So others guide our way. Goodnight dear son, sleep in peace We love you forevermore.
