ok here's what looks to be the final product...thanks all...
The Memories Stay (tune: Water is Wide)
There is a candle it burns right well Shining bright in my heart it dwells But the wind it came strong and stout And blew that bright burning candle out
My heart stopped beating when the phone rang I heard the news as the salt tears sang The blast it shook me to the bone For now he'll never be coming home
I see him coming through the door I hear his steps stomp across the floor I hear his voice whisper soft and clear As my fingers feel my hot wet tears
In the window a candle burns bright Calling him home in the dark night The pain may fade as the years go by But the memories stay in my heart nearby
