When tomorrow starts without me and I'm not here to see
Ifthe sun should nse andfindyour ryes allfilled with tearsfor me
I wzshyou wouldn't cry the wayyou did today While thinking ofthe many things we did notget to say I know how muchyou love me, as much as I loveyou Each time thatyou think ofme, I knowyou will miss me too When tomorrow starts with ott! 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 reac!J in heaven far above And that I would have to leave behind, all those I Dear!J Love
But When I walked through Heaven's Gates I felt so much at home.
When GOD looked down and smiled at mefrom his golden throne He said This Is Eternity and All I promzsedyou
Today for life on earth zs done but Here it starts a new I promise no tomorrow, for today will always last And Since each day 'J tl.Je exact same way There zs no longingfor the past So When Tomorrow starts without me Do not think we're apart For every timeyou think ofme Remember I'm n'ght here inyour heart.
