Verse 1 She raised two boys with calloused hands, On her own through the shifting sands, When the world got hard, she'd stand her ground, A stronger soul was never found. Young Rob chased horizons far away, Crossed oceans and made Denmark his place, Built a family, built a life so grand, But carried his mother's heart across the land. Chorus Oh Sharon, the bush was your home, Among the gum trees where your spirit roamed, You gave your love to the lost and small, There was always room for one more at all. The animals, the family, the life you made, The kindness you gave will never fade. Though yesterday you slipped from sight, Your love still burns like a country light. Verse 2 And Steve stayed close beside your gate, Always there when work got late, A helping hand, a faithful son, Beside you through the setting sun. There in Tara on your little farm, You built a shelter with an open heart, Every creature that had nowhere to go, Found warmth and love they'd never known. Chorus Oh Sharon, the bush was your home, Among the gum trees where your spirit roamed, You gave your love to the lost and small, There was always room for one more at all. The animals, the family, the life you made, The kindness you gave will never fade. Though yesterday you slipped from sight, Your love still burns like a country light. Bridge Helen, Stephen, Allan and Brett, Will carry the memories they won't forget, And every road that leads back home, Will whisper your name when the wind has blown. The dogs you saved, the lives you changed, The family gathered through joy and pain, Your story lives in the hearts you touched, And that's why you'll be missed so much. Final Chorus Oh Sharon, the bush was your home, And now the stars are where you roam, The gates stand open, the paddocks wide, With every sunset you're still beside us. And though our hearts are heavy today, Your love will never fade away. For a mother like you leaves more than a name, She leaves a fire that will always remain. Outro So rest easy now, your work is done, Your race is run beneath the sun, And in Tara when the evening falls, We still hear your voice through it all.
