One Sweet Day
Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
And now it's too late to hold you
'cause you've flown away
So far away
Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive
Alive
CHORUS:
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
[Eventually we'll sing in heaven]
Darling I never showed you
Assumed you'd always be there
And I took your presence for granted
But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared
CHORUS
Although the sun will never shine the same
I'll always look to a brighter day
Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray
TO MY BIG BROTHER SCOTTY
I never knew my brother Scotty,
Yet I know him well;
Through my mother's eyes,
I'll always know him, and I love him still..
I'll grow tall and strong just like him,
Yet, not like him at all;
He'll be my guardian angel, and
Catch me when I fall..
We'll grow through life together
like all siblings do
He'll be a constant part of my life
To Scotty, I'll be true..
I have his clothes, toys, and
photos.I hold them dear to me.
But most of all, my sisters
Will be where Scotty cannot be..
The memories my mother gave to me,
Are gifts I can't repay
but I can always remember my brother
In the same special way..
I'll treasure loving memories
I'll hold them in my heart
Until the day that my brother and I...
No longer are apart...
Written with love by Mom for Haley Monique..
Born December 7, 2000
In loving memory of her forever big brother

TO OUR SURVIVING CHILDREN
And you were with us
When the darkness came
You stood and grieved
And kept yourself alive
WE THANK YOU NOW
We have not always
Honored who you are
And often did not tend
Your hidden sorrows
FORGIVE US NOW
Because you loved us
Well enough to wait
Until we could
Return to you and know
With joy, hope, and love:
You are tomorrow..
WE CELEBRATE YOUR LIFE--
And while we well remember, always, always
The one, the many souls who did not live
We see you once again
For what you are:
The wealth you are,
The comfort
And the promise
WE THANK YOU NOW
