"WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME"
When tomorrow starts without me and I'm not here to see If the sun should rise and find your eyes, all filled with tears for me
I wish you wouldn't cry, the way you did today, While thinking of the many things, we did not get to say
I know how much you love me as much as I love you Each time that you think of me, I know you will miss me too When tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand That an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand.
The angel said my place was ready in heaven far above And that I would have to leave behind all those I dearly love But when I walked through heaven's gates I felt so much at home When GOD looked down and smiled at me from his golden throne
He said this is eternity and all I promised you Today for life on earth is done but here it starts a new
I promise no tomorrow for today will always last And since each day's the exact same way , there is no longing for the past
So when tomorrow starts without me, do not think we're apart For every time you think of me, remember I'm right here in your heart
