My friend who lost his wife a few months ago asked me to write a song about their journey these past few months. I didn't want to pester him with a bunch of questions so I went to her facebook page for inspiration. Her last post before she went into the hospital was a repost of something she had written about him 5 years earlier, and her new post just said 'Still True, Love You'. He's has since turned to God for strength. My heart goes out to him and the kids. I'll re-record maybe with some piano, and put the song over a video sequence of photos she had posted, before I send it to him.
V1
"Still True, Love You"
Her words replay in his mind
He didn't get a chance to say goodbye
Ch
A journey together
A journey apart
But only for a while
Still True, Love You
Still True, Love You
Its only for a while
V2
She left two kids
and a man that she adored
When he gets to heaven he'll see her once more
V3
Through faith in God
He's finding strength in the word
Remembering the impact she left on this world

Sadness in the song is evident and yet the hope of his faith is up front. Thanks for sharing.
