I will miss you when you go much more than you'll ever know
But I'll have a memory to keep you near
In my heart you will remain but it just won't be the same
I will miss a million things that make you dear
Your lovely ways make you so sweet I prayed the angels fair will keep
You're happiness oh you'll be blessed just as you deserve to be
And as you travel on your way just remember that each day
Someone thinks of you and hopes you're happy dear

(I ask for a silver star to shine brightly where you are
To guide your way through all eternity)
And when it's shining from above it will sparkle down with love
In all its glory for the world to see
Your kindly heart will help you find the happiness you have in mind
Your treasured chest will be the best cause it's filled with God's sunshine
I wonder why there are so few lovely people just like you
My but I will surely miss you when you go (when you go)
