"Remember me with smiles not tears, For all the joy through all the years, ..."Don't dwell on thoughts that cause you pain, We'll see each other once again, I am at peace, try to believe, It was my time, I had to leave,...But "what a view" I have from here, I see your face, I feel you near, I follow you throughout the day, You're not alone along the way, And when God calls you, you will be, Right by my side...right here with me."

REMEMBER ME Do not shed tears when I have gone but smile instead because I have lived. Do not shut your eyes and pray to God that I’ll come back but open your eyes and see all that I have left behind. I know your heart will be empty because you cannot see me but still I want you to be full of the love we shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live only for yesterday or you can be happy for tomorrow because of what happened between us yesterday. You can remember me and grieve that I have gone or you can cherish my memory and let it live on. You can cry and lose yourself become distraught and turn your back on the world or you can do what I want - smile, wipe away the tears, learn to love again and go on. *I can't go on. I must go on. I'll go on.

My eyes filled up with tears as I heard the news It never occurred to me, how much I could lose I find myself wishing that it wasn't real Every time I think about it, pain is all I can feel Tears fall from my eyes, I can barely see But my heart tells me that he'll always be with me I’m glad he feels no pain now-he lives in a perfect land I can still feel the soft touch on my shoulder of his loving hand I lie in bed and cry at night And I don’t feel any better in the morning light And I will love and miss him forever Until the day we are again together. Together in that perfect place above, Filled with caring, sharing and love But until that day comes- I will wipe my tears away. And hopefully see him again someday
