Deas Vail Colors Fade
I'll always miss
how you ran your race
as hard as you could 'til the end
And molded our lives
helped us to realize
how our days just began.
Folded at the chance.
You're leaving as the best you could do
And we'll chase after you
when our colors fade.
Silently speak,
your actions were always
so much louder than words.
Trembling hands,
tenderly held in hands
that makes joy with the hurt.
You're so far from here,
but still inside the hearts of us all,
as we rise and we fall
'til our colors fade.
Somehow we will see these days
from start to end.
Fall back in to places
we have never been.
But without you right here,
it will never be like that again.
And I'll always miss
how you ran your race
as hard as you could 'til the end
And walked through that door,
we're all so proud
you're there with our Lord
once again.
