One Song At A Time

from What's Left of My Heart by Rich Owen

/

lyrics

Verse 1:
He came to touch hearts for a while
Telling his tale through the art of his tiles
A mosaic of faith, hope and love
Was the story he told

He taught us all about life
From making a snowman to riding a bike
A father of eight and a friend
To so many more

We remember his song as he heads
Past life’s western shore

Chorus:
One note at a time
He could ease our sore hearts
In love’s healing fire
One word at a time
He would set our souls free
And send them higher
With a phrase he could break up
And make up, and take up
Our cause, our desires
Stop the world on a dime
With a tune and a rhyme
One song at a time

Verse 2:
No pain he had seen could erase
A lifetime of smiles etched into his face
A light that shined from his eyes
Undimmed by years…

He showed us the way to erase
Life’s worries and fears

<Repeat Chorus>

Bridge:
As the song of his life approached
The end of the last verse he wrote
The last wish he made
Was to stand on the stage
And to end life the way that he’d lived…

Final Chorus:
One note at a time
He could ease our sore hearts
In love’s healing fire
One word at a time
He would set our souls free
And send them higher
With a phrase he could break up
And make up, and take up
Our cause, our desires
Stop the world on a dime
With a tune and a rhyme
One note at a time…
One word a time…
One song at…a time…
