When tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not there
to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes are 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
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 yesterdays, the good ones and the
bad,
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 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.
And when I thought of wordly 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 heavens gate, I felt so
much at home.
When God looked down and smiles at me, from His great
golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity and all I've promised
you".
Today for life on what is past but here it starts
anew.
I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last,
and since each day's the same day, there's no longing
for the past.
But you have been so faithful, so trusting, so
true.
Though there were many times you did some things you
knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven and now at last you're
free.
So won't you take my hand and share my life with
me?
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're
far apart.
For everytime you think of me, I'm right her in your
heart.
