Ari Scott - Here Lies A Woman lyrics

She was born on the 20th of June 1974, an hour past noon or so She lived a good life, she was a wife And a mother (a damn good one too) So we're gathered here today to pay (In a way) our respects to a woman about whom I'll say: Here lies a woman who knew right from wrong Here lies a woman who knew all along she would Be somebody in this life. that, she knew I'll say: here lies a woman loved by all of you She was brought up the oldest of four They treated her well but still she always wanted more Daughter of a teacher who later wrote a book or two And a well-known book editor with eyes of steel blue She moved to the city (it was always her wish) And it was there she met the man she spent her life with Here lies a woman who knew right from wrong Here lies a woman who knew all along she would Have a positive effect on those who surrounded her Here lies a woman loved by those around her Well, don't ask why There's a time and a reason for every life She hopes not all of you decided to dress In black 'cause that would just make her depressed She accomplished a lot while she lived Always wanting to conquer her fears, always wanting to give What she could, when she could, she was considered good I think we should live our lives like she would Here lies a woman who knew right from wrong Here lies a woman who knew all long she would Leave her mark on this world. that, she believed, I'll say! Here lies a woman who asks you not to grieve
