When Life Starts Without me

When tomorrow starts without me, and Im not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much that you would'nt cry the way you did today
While thinking of all the things that we didnt get to say

I know how much you love me, as much as I love you
And each time that 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 my 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 about this for awhile
I'd say goodbye and kiss you, and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realised that this could never be,
For emptiness and memories would take the place of me.
And when I thought of all the things I'd miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow.

But when I walked through heaven's gates, I felt so much at hime
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 and what has passed, but here starts anew,
I promise no tomorrow for today will always last,
And since each day's the same, theres no longing for the past."

"But you've been so faithful, so trusting, so true.
Though there were times you did some things that 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, dont think we're far apart
For everytime you think of me, I'm right here in your heart.
