If tomorrow starts
without me,
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
care for
me, and how much I
care for
you,
and each time that you
think of
me I know you'll miss
me too;
But when tomorrow
starts
without me, please try
to
understand,
that an angel came and
called my
name and took me by
the hand,
and said 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 life, I'd always
thought I
didn't want to die.
I had so much to live
for and so
much 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, I
thought, just for a
while,
I'd say goodbye and
hug you and
maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realised
that this
could never be,
for emptiness and
memories
would take the place of
me.
And when I thought of
worldly
things that I'd miss
come
tomorrow.
I thought of you, and
when I did,
my heart was filled with
sorrow.
But when I walked
through
Heaven's 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 your life on earth
is past
but here it's starts a
new.
I promise no tomorrow,
but
today will always last.
and since each day's
the same,
there's no longing for
the past.
But you have been so
faithful, so
trusting, so true.
Though there were
times you did
some things you knew
you
shouldn't do.
And you have been
forgiven and
now at last you're
free.
So won't you come
and take my
hand and share my life
with me?"
So if tomorrow starts
without
me, don't think we're
far apart,
for every time you think
of me,
please know I'm in
your heart. -giveheart-
