Husband dear
You bid no one a last farewell
You said goodbye to none
A dear heart had ceased to beat
Before we knew you were gone.
Lonely is our heart today
Sad it seems with us to say
For the one we loved so dearly
Has forever passed away.
We often sit and think of you
And think of how you died.
To think you could not say good
bye
Before you closed your eyes.
