AND I'M NOT THERE TO SEE;
IF THE SUN SHOULD RISE AND FIND YOUR EYES
ALL FILLED WITH TEARS FOR ME;
I WISH SO MUCH YOU WOULDN'T CRY
THE WAY YOU DID TODAY.
WHILE THINKING OF THE MANY THINGS
WE DIDN'T GET TO SAY.
I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU LOVE ME
AS MUCH AS I LOVE YOU.
AND EACH TIME THAT YOU THINK OF ME,
I KNOW YOU'LL MISS ME TOO;
BUT WHEN TOMARROW START WITHOUT ME,
PLEASE TRY TO UNDERSTAND.
THAT AN ANGEL CAME AND CALLED MY NAME
AND TOOK ME BY THE HAND
AND SAID THAT MY PLACE WAS READY
IN HEAVEN FAR ABOVE.
AND THAT I'D HAVE TO LEAVE BEHIND,
ALL THOSE I DEARLY LOVE.
BUT AS I TURNED TO WALK AWAY.
A TEAR FELL FROM MY EYE,
FOR ALL MY LIFE I'D ALWAYS THOUGHT,
I DID NOT WANT TO DIE
I HAVE SO MUCH TO LIVE FOR
SO MUCH MORE YET TO DO,
IT SEEMED ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE,
THAT I WAS LEAVING YOU.
I THOUGHT OF ALL THE LOVE WE SHARED
AND ALL THE FUN WE HAD,
IF I COULD RELIVE YESTERDAY
JUST EVEN FOR AWHILE
I'D SAY GOODBYE AND KISS YOU
AND MAYBE SEE YOU SMILE
BUT THEN I FULLY REALIZED, THAT THIS COULD
NEVER BE, FOR EMPTINESS AND MEMORIES
WOULD TAKE THE PLACE OF ME
AND WHEN I THOUGHT OF WORLDLY THINGS,
I MIGHT MISS TOMARROW,
I THOUGHT OF YOU AND WHEN I DID,
MY HEART WAS FILLED WITH SORROW.
BUT WHEN I WALKED THROUGH HEAVENS GATES,
I FELT SO MUCH AT HOME.
WHEN GOD LOOKED DOWN AND SMILED AT ME
FROM HIS GREAT GOLDEN THRONE,
HE SAID"THIS IS ETERNITY AND ALL I'VE PROMISED YOU."
TODAY FOR LIFE ON EARTH IS PAST,
BUT HERE IS STARTS A NEW LIFE
I PROMISE NO TOMARROW,
BUT TODAY WILL ALWAYS LAST,
AND SINCE EACH DAY IS THE SAME DAY,
THERE'S NO LONGING FOR THE PAST.
BUT YOU HAVE BEEN SO FAITHFUL
SO TRUSTING AND SO TRUE,
THROUGH THERE WERE TIMES YOU DID SOME
THINGS YOU REALLY SHOULDN'T DO,
BUT YOU HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN,
AND NOW AT LAST YOU'RE FREE.
SO NOW WON'T YOU TAKE MY HAND,
AND SHARE MY LIFE WITH ME?"
SO WHEN TOMARROW STARTS WITHOUT ME,
DON'T THINK WE'RE APART,
FOR EVERY TIME YOU THINK OF ME,
I'M RIGHT HERE IN YOUR HEART.
