When I think back on these times
And the dreams we left behind
I'll be glad 'cause I was blessed to get to have you in my life
When I look back on these days
I'll look and see your face
You were right there for me

In my dreams I'll always see you soar above the sky
In my heart there'll always be a place for you for all my life

I'll keep a part of you with me
And everywhere I am there you'll be

Well you showed me how to feel
Feel the sky was in my reach
And I always will remember all the strength you gave to me
Your love made me make it through
Oh, I owe so much to you
You were right there for me

In my dreams I'll always see you soar above the sky
In my heart there'll always be a place for you for all my life

I'll keep a part of you with me
And everywhere I am there you'll be

'Cause I always saw in you my light, my strength
And I want to thank you now for all the ways
You were right there for me
You were right there for me....always

I'll keep a part of you with me
And everywhere I am there you'll be
And everywhere I am there you'll be

Let me sleep, for when I sleep I dream that you are here
You're mine and all my fears are left behind, I float on air, the nightingale sings gentle lullabies

So let me close my eyes and sleep, a chance to dream
So I can see the face I long to touch, to kiss
But only dreams can bring me this, so let the moon shine softly up above

I long to see and maybe when he dreams, he'll dream of me
I hide beneath the clouds and whisper to the evening stars

They tell me love is just a dream away
So let the moon shine softly up above
I long to see and maybe when he dreams, he'll dream of me

I'll need time to get you off my mind
I may sometimes bother you, try to be in touch with you, even ask too much of you, from time to time
Now and then, Lord, you know I'll need a friend
'Till I get used to losing you, let me keep on using you
'Til I can make it on my own

I'll get by, but no matter how I try
There'll be times that you'll know I'll call
Chances are my tears will fall
And I'll have no pride at all, from time to time

But they say, oh, there'll be a brighter day
But 'Til then I lean on you
That's all I mean to do
'Til I can make it on my own

Surely someday I'll look up and see the morning sun
Without another lonely night behind me
Then I'll know I'm over you and all my cryin's done
No more hurtin' memories can find me

But 'til then, Lord, you know I'm gonna need a friend
'Til I get used to losing you, let me keep on using you
'Til I can make it on my own
