For a second you were flying Like you always wanted to Now you'll fly forever In skies of azure blue We'll see your smile in every ray Of sunshine after rain And hear the echo of your laughter Over all the pain The world's a little quieter now The colours have lost their hue The birds are singing softly And our hearts are missing you Each time we see a little cloud Or a rainbow soaring high We'll think of you and gently Wipe a tear from our eye.
