MATHEW
by Cousin Diana
THE SHOTS RANG OUT
IN THE NIGHT
YOU WEREN'T ABLE
TO PUT UP A FIGHT
WE DIDN'T WANT TO
KNOW OUR LIVES WITHOUT YOU
THAT'S WHY YOUR PASSING
MADE US SO BLUE
YOU WERE TO YOUNG
WHEN YOUR TIME CAME
BUT IN YOUR DEATH
YOU'VE GAINED FAME
GOD DEFINITELY KNEW
WHEN HE SENT YOU HERE
THAT WITH YOUR LOVE
WE'D HOLD YOU DEAR
YOU WERE A GIFT
FROM ABOVE
AND APPRECIATED
WITH OUR LOVE
YOUR SHOULDERS WERE STRONG
FOR ALL OF US
EVEN THOUGH
WE'D PUT UP A FUSS
WE'D HOLD YOU TIGHT
AND HOLD YOU DEAR
WITH YOU WE'D
EVEN SHED A TEAR
YOU'LL BE MISSED
BY ALL OF US
WHO LOVE YOU SO
AND PUT US A FUSS
IN YOUR DEATH
WE CAME TO SEE
IN OUR HEARTS
THIS HAD TO BE
MATHEW, OUR LOVE FOREVER
CARRY IT WITH YOU
CAUSE ONE DAY
WE'LL BE THERE TOO
