Trinkets Made of Gold

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I was so small back then, and you were tall The one who'd let me stay, when evening fall You made a little world feel bright and new The first true friend I ever really knew [Chorus] Oh, you gave me treasures, simple and true Little cast-off trinkets, gold to me from you Aunt Paula, you always made me feel Loved beyond measure, tender and real [Verse 2] You had the time to listen when I'd speak You saw a shining child, though I was weak Through all the years your kindness never bent A quiet faith, a love that heaven sent [Chorus] Oh, you gave me treasures, simple and true Little cast-off trinkets, gold to me from you Aunt Paula, you always made me feel Loved beyond measure, tender and real [Bridge] Now you're facing the hardest climb of all But I am here to catch you, should you fall The strength you gave me, I give back to you [Verse 3] So lean on all the love you handed down Let gratitude and grace be your crown Aunt Paula, hold my hand and don't let go There's nothing that could break the bond we know [Chorus] Oh, you gave me treasures, simple and true Little cast-off trinkets, gold to me from you You always made me feel so seen, so real A love and faith that time can never steal [Outro] First friend of my heart, you always will be Thank you, sweet Aunt Paula, for all you gave to me
