The tree of life is growing where the spirit never dies, and the bright light of salvation shines in dark and empty skies.

 A call no father should have to take,  

A thousand hearts about to break.   
Too young to go, a bright future ahead, 

Too many years wasted, too many tears shed.   

Sorrow, anger, my world falling apart,  Emotions, my heart, shatters of glass.
I stand here now, heart broken and resigned.  Resigned to the fact, Jade exists only in my mind.   

In my mind a whirlwind of colour, so much more of life for you to discover.   

My beautiful daughter, aspirations and dreams,  Personification of Jade, a gem, my queen.   

Shine bright diamond, I see you there. Jade the Jewel of Heaven, forever in my heart, forever in my prayer.
