Such a sad day today,
For over seventy years
She has sat on the throne,
And now she has passed,
Passed into the forever,
Once more with her true love,
They will now sail together
On that sea of eternity,
Their love showing all the time.
Such a sad day today,
This is the day my dad died,
Died twenty-seven years ago.
He did not reach seventy,
Missed it by a month,
But he too is with his love
And like the Queen
Will be sailing together,
On that sea of eternity.
