Yvonne

We’ve collected memories like miles on the dash

Every place that we visited, every photograph

Just enjoying each other, the sights along the way

You’ve been my steady compass through the night and day

Whenever I reached out, you were always right there

A gentle kind of constant in the open air

Yvonne, you put our family ahead of it all

The mother of our children, catching every fall

You're the heart of this life that we've built to last

My beautiful present, my favorite past

And when my time comes and I have to cross over

I know that the final breath isn't the end

'Cause even in heaven, you'll be with me again

I look at our children and see your sweet grace

The love that you gave them is etched in their face

You never held back, you always gave your best

Making our home a safe place to rest

Through every new chapter, you anchored the tide

I couldn't have asked for a more perfect guide

Yvonne, you put our family ahead of it all

The mother of our children, catching every fall

You're the heart of this life that we've built to last

My beautiful present, my favorite past

And when my time comes and I have to cross over

I know that the final breath isn't the end

'Cause even in heaven, you'll be with me again

So let the years roll and let the light fade

I'll never forget a single memory we made

Because a love like ours doesn't stop at the grave

It’s the one piece of me that the angels will save

Yvonne, you put our family ahead of it all

The mother of our children, catching every fall

You're the heart of this life that we've built to last

My beautiful present, my favorite past

And when my eyes close and I finally cross over

I'll wait in the light where the sorrow will mend

'Cause when I reach heaven, you'll be with me again

Yes, even in heaven, you'll be with me again
