They Say There Is A Reason
They say there is a reason
They say that time will heal,
But neither time nor reason
Will change the way we feel.
For no-one knows the heartache,
That lies behind our smiles.
No-one knows how many times
We have broken down and cried.
Gone from home that smiling face,
Those cheerful, happy ways,
The heart that won so many friends,
In bygone, Happy days.
We want to tell you something,
So there won't be any doubt.
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to be without.
We cannot bring the old days back,
When we were all together.
The family chain is broken now,
But memories live forever.
