A light went out on Earth for me , the day we said goodbye and on that say a star was born, The brightest in the sky, reaching through the darkness, with its ways of purest white, lighting up the heavens, as it once lit up my life, with beams of love to heal, the broken hear you left behind, where always in my memory your lovely star will shine.
