Somewhere Beyond the Blue

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a space at the table where laughter once lived A smile that could light up a room An old soul who taught us the way love could give Gone too quickly, too soon They said his heart might not hold long But Jeffrey proved them wrong Eighteen years of living strong A spirit like a song [Chorus] Jeffrey lives in every sunrise In the bluest stretch of sky In the brothers who still share his eyes That beautiful, brilliant blue light Though the waves of grief roll in and out His light will never dim We carry on without a doubt Heaven's holding him [Verse 2] He loved his Jeep, the golf course greens The crack of bat on ball The gentlest heart we've ever seen The kindest of us all He painted life in vivid hues Blue was always his From the color of the sky he'd choose To the eyes we'll always miss [Chorus] Jeffrey lives in every sunrise In the bluest stretch of sky In the brothers who still share his eyes That beautiful, brilliant blue light Though the waves of grief roll in and out His light will never dim We carry on without a doubt Heaven's holding him [Bridge] The doctors marveled at his fight A heart that beat beyond their charts He filled each borrowed day with light And left his mark on all our hearts [Verse 3] So family, when the grief rolls in Like tides you can't predict Remember where his smile has been The lives his love has lit Nine years now and still we come Keep gathering in this place For Jeffrey Richards was the one Who showed us Heaven's grace [Chorus] Jeffrey lives in every sunrise In the bluest stretch of sky In the brothers who still share his eyes That beautiful, brilliant blue light Though the waves of grief roll in and out His light will never dim We carry on without a doubt Heaven's holding him [Outro] Rest easy now, sweet Jeffrey We'll meet again someday Until then, we'll keep your memory Just a heartbeat away Somewhere beyond the blue You're smiling down on us And we're still smiling up at you
