Karen

There’s a quiet grace in the way you move

A beautiful soul with nothing to prove

Karen, you stepped in with an open heart

A gentle kindness right from the start

You wrapped me up in a safe embrace

And brought the light back into my space

You didn't have to, but you took my hand

You became my mother, helped me understand

They say blood is what makes a family true

But I know love is what tied me to you

If I could measure what I'm giving back

Just know I love you, I love you more than that

Every sacrifice, every tear you dried

You were the steady rhythm by my side

It’s in the way you smile, the way you care

I turn around and you're already there

So loving and patient, shining so bright

You are the comfort in the middle of the night

You didn't have to, but you took my hand

You became my mother, helped me understand

They say blood is what makes a family true

But I know love is what tied me to you

If I could measure what I'm giving back

Just know I love you, I love you more than that

More than a title, more than a name

You took the pieces and shifted the frame

You chose this bond, you chose to be mine

A beautiful heart by a perfect design

You didn't have to, but you took my hand

You became my mother, helped me understand

They say blood is what makes a family true

But I know love is what tied me to you

If I could measure what I'm giving back

Just know I love you, I love you more than that

Oh, Karen, I love you more than that
