Country Colored Memories
The saying goodbyes are sad
You loved and gave life all you had
The best years now are past
We knew they wouldn’t last
The time has ended for now
We will meet again somehow
We spent our days so Easily

The road ahead, it was always there
We didn’t see it, we didn’t care
Until it hit us right in the face
The here and now in this time and place
I’ll say goodbye because I must
But your memories I’ve laid up in trust
