Analysis of My Life Has Just Not Been the Same
George Cook 1934 (Lanarkshire)
My life has just not been the same
Since that so so sad sad day
When God so softly called your name
And you went with Him to stay
Each day, though it’s a different one
My feelings I can’t disguise
I still have sadness fill my heart
And tears that fill my eyes
Till we meet again
