Happy Birthday Kristen,

If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane,

I would walk right up to heaven

To bring you home again.

No farewell words were spoken,

No time to say goodbye.

You were gone before I knew it,

And only God knows why.

My heart still aches in sadness

And secret tears still flow,

What it meant to lose you,

No one will ever know.

So today on your birthday, my dearest Kristen,

The Angels will sing Happy Birthday to you from your Dad.
