Lyrics
1. In my heart there’s someone
Who never can be replaced
In my mind a picture
That never can be erased
REFRAIN
Tired hands that guided me since childhood days
Tired heart that loved and understood always
Tired steps that I can’t number
Tired eyes that knew no slumber
Tired lips too tired for her rosary
But not too tired to pray for me
God gave her to you, need I tell you who
Rocked your cradle with those tired hands
2. She was just an angel
That heaven sent down to me
And I know forever
I’ll treasure this memory
