Little Wood Box

 

 

(Vs)

In a little wood box

lies her greatest treasure

A priceless gem

worth can't be measured

 

(Vs)

In a little wood box

There's a pair of shoes

A special gift

for church and school

 

(Ch)

She wants to run to it

Wants to look inside

But she can only sit

and stare wide eyed

There's someone talking

she can't  hear

There's music playing

soft somewhere

But she just hears the clock

as she stares at a little wood box

 

(Vs)

In a little wood box

There's a pair of glasses

They're custom made

In the latest fashion

 

(Vs)

In a little wood box

Is a little bow tie

Made it herself

for her special guy

 

(Ch)

Her husband helps her up

holds her close to him

walks her through the crowd

people watching them

If it wasn't for him

she couldn't move

It's seems so surreal

so untrue

And finally when they stop

she looks into that little wood box

 

Just eight years old

in his young prime

Made it to school

but never left this time

Her dreams shot down

in the blink of an eye

a man took his life

she still wonders why

 

(Vs)

In that little wood box

she brushes off his shoes

straightens his glasses

and his bow tie too

 

(Vs)

In that little wood box

lies her greatest treasure

A priceless gem

worth can't be measured
