The Lady in the Box

You're as beautiful as the day, I met you

And it will always be that way

I said that I would always love you

And that still stands true, today

You're the best mother a child ever had

And you're also the worlds greatest wife

You're the woman of a thousands dreams

That I've searched for all of my life

You always knew how to make me smile

Whenever I was feeling down

There was something in your magical voice

That would melt away my frown

I wanted to put you on a pedistal

But you said it was way too high

You said you didn't deserve it

But I never quite understood why

You're the reason that God made the sunshine

To compete with your beautiful smile

But you never thought you were special

For that was just never your style

We've made memories to last us a lifetime

And I promise to never forget

I've made you a million promises

And I haven't broken one yet 

I come here today to say goodbye

And so you'll know that you've been kissed

I want you to know, as they lower you down

How much you're gonna be missed
