I WILL WAIT FOR YOU
I will wait for you…/Though we never had a chance to say goodbye,/ Remember me…// When winter snows are falling through a quiet sky/ I’ll remember you/ when, in our darkest hour,/ you held my hand and prayed I wouldn’t go—/ but a silent voice called out to me:/ my time had come, and I had to travel Home…// Since then, I know your life has never been the same,/ for I visit you each day:/ so many times I’ve felt your pain;/ I’ve watched you cry;/ and I’ve heard you call my name…// But now, further along life’s road I stand/ in a timeless world, just beyond your sight/ but waiting for the day when I can take your hand/ and bring you across to this Land of Golden Light…// Till then, remember me, you understand – and try not to cry./ But if you do:/ let your tears fall/ for the happiness and the joy we knew,/ and for the special Love we shared –/ for Love can never die.
