Still can't believe no time to grieve
this horrible nightmare I'm living
the slightest mistake a second to late
and life is so unforgiving

a walk that was hard through an old graveyard
feeling so cold and alone
came face to face with a very sad place
there it was written in stone

letters in gold sent me quite cold
a shiver ran down my spine
the words that I read played with my head
of a love that used to be mine

gold letters on black sure set me back
when your name shone out from the stone
tears in my eyes I wanted to cry
now I'm left here all alone

what can I say you were taken away
it came as a shock all the same
all I have left is a black slab of stone
with gold letters saying your name

written in gold a short story it told
saying a good wife and mother you'd been
snatched in your prime gone before your time
left me alone with my dreams
