Can angels cry..
As we ring the bell of the greatest home, ever known
Here we are to return an angel so graceful and strong
Such a powerful woman... her advice I'll forever use
She’d always say “Child don’t lose any more weight”
That order however I just may refuse
Walking this short path of life... I’ve seen many things
After every storm the sun eventually beams
After the longest of the longest droughts
We’ve always had roses come spring
After every souls departs another angel is set to rest
Freed of all prior... heartache, pain and distress
I want to say "Thank you", my dear Lord on everyone's behave
Thank you, for all the beautiful memories... we'll forever possess
I will no longer shed tears, because I know her burdens are now at rest
As precious as the day when sunset finally sets
Or that feeling on Christmas... when Santa has fulfilled your request
Today is a housewarming... a celebration of your new home
Although we may feel hopeless, incomplete, sad and alone
There’s no place more grand than my grandmother's new address
There’s no need for house work, cooking or sweat
I hope everything met... your expectations and standards
There's even a garden that pre-seasoned planted
No man could ever protect her… as much as our dear God
No moments are as golden… as the walk through heaven's front yard
Seems like the mind can only make such beautiful notes
When the heart is in pain and aches the most
Lawrence, Gerald, and Erica... all of the should’ve, would’ve, could’ve(s)
Still couldn’t prepare for this close once our father calls us home
There’s no saying NO... or resistance when it’s time for one to go
My dear God please give them hope... when they're backed against the wall
And they're options are low... Give them the strength of one last punch
When life seem to be winning its fight... a bandage for the wounds bleeding inside
Bless them with the gift of guidance when their path is no longer wrote
Grant them a healing to that feeling that only the devil provokes
Continue to bless them in their lives and whichever route they go
Fill the void in their hearts that only a mother would fill
Touch them on the shoulder my lord and let them know you’re real
Supply them a friend when days get lonely and no one is near
Give them the gift of exquisite memory so every little detail is kept well
For when days aren’t as sunny... the thought of her smile keeps them going
Rejoice their spirits and help them find warmth in the cold
I know you wouldn't give... a load they couldn’t hold
Remove those clouds of regret and guilt
Tell them god she’s okay & you’ll take it from here.
