If I could wrap a ribbon
around the places you have touched
You wouldn't need to see it written
there are no places left untouched
If I could find the right shade
to express my heartfelt love
Or reassure you that it won't fade
since you've made your home above
If I could tie it with the right knot
and hold a piece of you, with me
To fill the emptiness of the spot
void, since your spirit found its wings
The road I travel, would be a parade
filled with ribbons all around
Reflecting the difference your love made
telling a tale, without a sound
