Only Love
As you hike into the mountains
As you walk beside a stream
With your dogs close by your side
You’d feel the wonder, hopes and dreams
Your love for family
Whether near or far away
You bring strength and courage
As you challenge, run and play
If we listen - we will hear you laugh and sing
Dance and remember
All the joy that you still bring
What you’ve taught us
While on earth and from above
There’s just one thing we need to know
There is only love
All your life
You worked for justice and for peace
Teaching children, cooking food
Doing yoga for release
Though we know we’ll miss your smile
And sometimes we’ll feel alone
When we want to tell you something
And we can’t pick up the phone
If you listen – you will hear us laugh and sing
Dance and remember
All the joy that you still bring
What you’ve taught us
While on earth and from above
There’s just one thing we need to know
There is only love
