WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME

When tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not there to see;

If the sun should rise & find your eyes 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 you think of me, I know you'll miss me to;
But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand;
That an Angel came from Heaven, and took me by the hand
He 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 and walked away, a tear fell from my eye;
For all my life I thought, I didn't want to die;
I had so much to live for, and yet so much to do;
It seemed almost impossible, that I was leaving you;
I thought of all the yesterdays, the good and the bad;
I thought of all the love we shared, and all the fun we had;
If I could relive yesterday, I thought for just a while;
I'd say good-bye 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;
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart;
For every time you think of me, I'm right there in your heart.
