[Verse]
Staring at the ground lost in despair
Broken leaves fall no roots to share
Whisper her name in the cold night air
Can't grasp the loss just isn't fair
[Verse 2]
Cancer's cruel hand ripped her away
Family of trees with branches frayed
Lonely shadows where memories stray
Roots torn asunder deeply betrayed
[Chorus]
Grandma's laughter echoes in the wind
Hollow heartbeats where love had been
Silent cries as the darkness sets in
Shattered roots and a broken kin
[Verse 3]
Pictures on the wall bring fleeting smiles
Footsteps fade in these empty aisles
Struggle for strength across the miles
We carry on but our souls defiled
[Verse 4]
Maybe in dreams she'll visit our peace
Teach us to grow though the pain won't cease
Her spirit like a whisper finds release
In the garden where our sorrows increase
[Bridge]
Lost in the echoes of her gentle grace
Wounds unhealed time can't erase
Walking through life in a fragile space
Family of trees in a twisted embrace
