You in My Heart

Here in the corner of my heart...I keep your picture,
dear...And take it with me everywhere...Both far
away and near...Because I want to look at you...
When dawn invades the sky...When sunlight lingers on
the grass...And winds go walking by...Because I
want to see your face...The same as it was then...
And in the evening twilight kiss...Your tender lips again
...And more because when it is night...And stars are
Overhead...I want to hold you close , my love...And
keep you comforted...I want to have your picture here
...Where it can never fade...Because if it should dis-
appear...It could not be remade.
