Dementia Lyrics

Silence floods the room, memories crystal clear

But time creeps in, stealing what we held dear

A life built on hard work, on stories you'd tell

Now dementia's shadow leaves a haunting trail

With kindness and family love, steady and true

You always had our backs, saw us through

Then came the day your mind lost its way

Fading fast, like yesterday's bread gone gray

Moments slip away, swallowed by a foggy haze

Each one sparking a frantic search-and-chase

Your laughter's gone, turned into heavy sighs

It hit when your world fell from bright to night

Why you takin' time, leavin' just an empty space?

Thoughts drift like smoke, shadows fallin' from grace

The care home became your safe, quiet place

Even though it hurt, leaving the old embrace

Bringing you comfort, a laugh, or a cheer

Trying to lift you, year after year

Your laughter's gone, turned into heavy sighs

It hit when your world fell from bright to night

Why you takin' time, leavin' just an empty space?

Thoughts drift like smoke, shadows fallin' from grace

Then your grandchild joined the care home crew

A familiar face, a sense of hope close to you

You were like a mother, steady and near

Now there's a void, so deep and clear

Your laughter's gone, turned into heavy sighs

It hit when your world fell from bright to night

Why you takin' time, leavin' just an empty space?

Thoughts drift like smoke, shadows fallin' from grace

You may be gone, but in us you stay

The years we had won't drift away

Love you always, Granny, that's for sure

Keep an eye on us from heaven's door

Your laughter's gone, turned into heavy sighs

It hit when your world fell from bright to night

Why you takin' time, leavin' just an empty space?

Thoughts drift like smoke, shadows fallin' from grace
