Beauty like a July storm Eyes fiery grey Hair dark and long A playful soul A trickster's grin Sweet sister Marilyn You were my superhero Your blanket cape I would follow A battle that you could not win Took you from me Marilyn Does love go on Even when you're gone Does it go on and on and on? I know you'd have been so proud I made a good life for myself A loving home, my own children I told them about you, Marilyn Because love goes on Even when we're gone It goes on and on and on Because love goes on Even when we're gone It goes on and on and on It goes on and on and on It goes on and on and on Born just like a July storm Eyes fiery grey and a spirit strong Grandchild's name to be given Calling her sweet Marilyn
