I Thank You

When our mum died my brother Robert, who writes songs and is a musician, wrote a piece which he sang at her funeral. This is it.

I Thank You
.
Whisper
I hear a finely spoken line
Though we'll miss her
She'll always be in our minds
Now I wonder
If things could have been changed
And I honour her
Till the end of my days
.
So mum, goodbye
Is all that I can say
And please thank her
For all the happiness she gave
Time gives memories
For all that we do
For this I thank you
I thank you
.
Till the end of my days
I'll honour her
If things could have been changed
I wonder
Though she'll always be in our minds
We'll miss her
And I say these finely spoken lines
In a whisper
.
So mum, goodbye
Is all that I can say
And please thank her
For all the happiness she gave
Time gives memories
For all that we do
Richard, Matthew, dad and I
We thank you
