Pan de Azúcar for the Departed

We set the table by the window light

Bread in a basket, candles low and bright

Photos in the center, stories in the air

Names we still remember, spoken like a prayer

The chairs all wait in a tender row

For footsteps only man renows

Come home in spirit, come home tonight

Sit with the living in the golden light

We break the bread and let the heart believe

No one is gone while love still leaves the sea

Come home in spirit, hear our song

In every story, you still belong

Maracas softly shake like distant rain

Laughter rises through the loss and pain

We pass the photos hand to hand

Finding your face in the firelight again

The room grows warm with every name

As if your breath is close to flame

Come home in spirit, come home tonight

Sit with the living in the golden light

We break the bed and let the heart believe

No one is gone while love still leaves us see

Come home in spirit, hear our song

In every stoley, you still belong

If the road is unseen with the darkest deep

Love is the lantern that never sleeps

Across the years and through the door

We savor place forevermore

Come home in spirit

Come home tonight

We light the string of stars outside

Bread on the table

Memories near

Your laughter lives

When we gather here

Come home and spirit

Hear our song

In every story

You still belong
