Lyrics
The sunlight on the garden still remembers how you smiled,
The laughter in the hallway lingers softly for a while.
Every step we took together made the ordinary shine,
And the world felt just a little more like home with you in mine.
I see you in the mornings when the quiet fills the air,
In stories told at tables, in the love we learned to share.
Your kindness left a footprint time can never wash away,
And the echoes of your joy still brighten every day.
(Chorus)
I'll take your love with me,
Through every open door.
I'll take your love with me,
It's all I'm reaching for.
Wherever life may lead,
In every memory--
I'll take your love with me.
You taught us how to cherish all the moments that we're given,
To find a little light inside the storms we're living in.
And though the road is quieter now that you've moved on ahead,
Your wisdom walks beside us in the things you left unsaid.
(Bridge)
No goodbye is ever final when a heart has been transformed,
And the love you gave so freely still keeps all of us warm.
We'll carry you in laughter, in the calm and in the pain,
Until the day we meet again.
(Chorus)
I'll take your love with me,
Through every open door.
I'll take your love with me,
It's all I'm reaching for.
Wherever life may lead,
In every memory--
I'll take your love with me
So rest now in the quiet, where the gentle spirits roam,
And know that in our hearts you've found a safe and lasting home.
We'll honor you in living, in the love we choose to give,
For you showed us what it means to truly live.
