The morning sun still paints the eastern sky
But there’s a quiet shadow in my eye
I look for you in every whispered breeze
Among the rustling leaves of ancient trees
They say some souls are sent from up above
A perfect vessel, overflowing with love
Oh, Linda, my friend, you were an angel, true
Your gentle smile melted hearts right through
Your face, a beacon, brightened every day
We'll miss you dearly, in every single way
I can still hear your laughter in the air
Chasing worries, easing every care
To share a moment, just to see you near
Was a precious gift, year after year
Oh, Linda, my friend, you were an angel, true
Your gentle smile melted hearts right through
Your face, a beacon, brightened every day
We'll miss you dearly, in every single way
You left a trail of kindness in your wake
A love so pure, for goodness sake
Though you're flying high, beyond our sight
You left our world bathed in your gentle light
An angel's whisper, always near
We’ll keep you in our hearts, Linda dear.
