Robert

You were the anchor for our boy, the center of our home

With two dogs running in the yard, we never were alone

You'd drop it all to lend a hand to anyone who asked

A happy-go-lucky kind of man in every single task

I miss the music that you loved, the pictures that you drew

Before the sickness took your strength and stole those joys from you

Oh, Robert, you're the only one, the best I ever knew

My heart, my body, mind, and soul belong to only you

I miss that unforgettable laugh, the smile that lit the room

Those light blue eyes that sparkled when the light was shining through

You're the best thing that ever happened to me, my husband and my friend

And I will love you, darling, till the day we meet again

You always kept a secret plan, a trip you wouldn't share

I never knew a single thing until we made it there

You always had a sweet surprise hiding up your sleeve

The big and little things you did, you made me just believe

Those moments always brought the happy tears right to my face

A wonderful husband and father that no one could replace

Oh, Robert, you're the only one, the best I ever knew

My heart, my body, mind, and soul belong to only you

I miss that unforgettable laugh, the smile that lit the room

Those light blue eyes that sparkled when the light was shining through

You're the best thing that ever happened to me, my husband and my friend

And I will love you, darling, till the day we meet again

It feels like my heart was torn right out of my chest

I cry for you each morning, and at night I cannot rest

But I look at our boy and the dogs, and I feel your gentle grace

I know that I could never find a man to take your place

Oh, Robert, you're the only one, the best I ever knew

My heart, my body, mind, and soul belong to only you

I miss that unforgettable laugh, the smile that lit the room

Those light blue eyes that sparkled when the light was shining through

You're the best thing that ever happened to me, my husband and my friend

And I will love you, darling, till the day we meet again
