About This Song


My mother-in-law Winsome, “Winnie,” Klay passed away 2/13/2011. I wrote this song as a memento for my wife Julie & her siblings, but also for me, as she was a precious soul. Julie recently asked if I would finish it; Tim Buppert: vocals & production.

HEART OF GOLD

Written by Jack Speer

1st Verse:
Known for her smile and her eyes;
Loved for her heart of gold,
As I look back, I realize,
I’ve never met a sweeter soul.

2nd Verse:
Her generosity,
was matched by no one,
And, there’s no place she’d rather be,
Than working in her garden.

Chorus:
It was just like her to say,
About things handmade,
When she discovered a flaw,

“The imperfections of,
Things made from love,
Make them beautiful.”

3rd Verse:
She was quick to laugh,
Quick to love everyone,
And she nurtured all along her path,
Turning her back on no one.

Chorus:
It was just like her to say,
About things handmade,
When she discovered a flaw,

“The imperfections of,
Things made from love,
Make them beautiful.”

4th Verse:
Known for her smile and her eyes;
Loved for her heart of gold,
As I look back, I realize,
I’ve never met a sweeter soul.

Tag:
Known for her smile and her eyes;
Loved for her heart of gold,
