REMEMBER ME
I never wanted to leave you, could I only have stayed, we would be going on in life with all the plans we made.
Now all the hopes and dreams we shared are but sweet memories, for you to tuck inside your heart now when you remember me.
Remember all the good times and all the love we shared, remember how you touched my life and how I really cared.
Think back on all the laugher and wipe away your tears,you still have many miles to go and still have many years.
Don't look back - look forward -this day is a brand new start, and as you travel on in life you'll take a bit of my heart.
I never meant to leave you but still you'll not be alone, for as long as my love lives in you I’ll never really be gone,
TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME
When tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not there to see, if the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me,
I wish so much you wouldn't cry, the way you did today, while thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.
I know how much you loved me - as much as I loved 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, so much left 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 re-live yesterday - just even for a while, I'd say good-bye and kiss you and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,- that this could never be, for emptiness and memories would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things I might 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 home - when God looked down and smiled at me, from His great golden throne. He said, "This is eternity, and all I've promised you.
Today your life on earth is past but here life starts anew
I promise no tomorrow but today will always last, and since each day's the same way there's no longing for the past.
You have been so faithful, so trusting and so true. So won't you come and take my hand and share my life with me?”
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart, for every time you think of me, I'm right here - in your heart.
MY HEART IS BROKEN FOREVEVER
People tell me that in time the pieces will eventually come back together
If this is true, though hard to believe now, there will always be a space - the piece which has your name on - in its place.
Tears have been falling now for so long - When I think of your lovely face it all seems so wrong
You had so much to look forward to and so much left to do
But God needed somebody in heaven as special as you.
Nothing is the same now and I doubt it ever will be - You have been released from pain and suffering, you have been set free.
Your story has touched people, all ages, near and afar - On the night you were taken from me, in the sky was a lone twinkling star.
Was that you to tell me that you had reached home now? and from life as we knew it, it was time for you to take your final bow
I miss your voice, your infectious laugh and hearing you sing
You loved your T-shirts and now you have new accessories - a pair of Angel’s wings.
The world has lost a wonderful man, a true, loving and amazing friend
But maybe your goodness was needed to help and from heaven he needed to send - Johnnie - you're always around me, engulfing me with your love - Giving me strength, keeping me close and watching over me from above.
