The world feels a little empty
Now she’s gone
Laid to rest in Lowertown cemetery
Her smile was like the sun
And I listened to her playing
Flying fiddle O
Her sister Amy squeezebox
Lively music O
And just as her life is ended
And her body in the grave
News of a man arrested
Justice for the brave
This murder speaks for millions
For all those left to die
Whose names and stories usually
Never meet our eye
This a total innocence
Attacked upon the road
Loveliness and beauty
Talent goodness knows
All the things that make up life
Children music sport
All were found in Ashling
In her death all are hurt
