I'LL REMEMBER YOU

[Flyman35]

I wipe away the tears

As they fall down my face

Replacing them with a smile

Remembering the times we shared

As I sit in my solitude, reminiscing for awhile

Even though the years have added up

It seems like only yesterday

When I held you in my arms

Then you left... to go Heavens way

There are times I pull out the pictures

The ones I deeply cherish, to this day

As I gaze upon your twinkling eyes

I cannot let your memory...

Just simply fade or slip away

I'll carry on, as you would wish me to do

Yet, I'll remember you

Maybe in a poem of words I shall write

Or in a song on the radio

That drifts within the silence

In the stillness of the night

I'll remember you in the starlight

In the blooming of the rose

In the sweetness of the springtime air

When the gentle wind should blow

I'll remember you in the laughter

In all the joys that come along

I'll remember you in your children

As I help them to carry on

I'll remember you... in all the good things

As I go through my daily pace

All the kind and wonderful things you did

Making this world a better place

I'll share all the good, you did

All the kindness, will not simply end

As my hand replaces yours

My own shall now extend

Until my name is called

I'll remember you

I shall think of you with a smile

I will not say, "Goodbye"

For I'm only waiting for awhile

Until we meet again
