When 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 love me as much as I love 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, she took me by the hand She 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 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 relive yesterday just even for a while I’d say goodbye and kiss you then I could see you smile But then I fully realized that could never be For emptiness and memories would take the place of me And when I thought of worldly things That I might miss come tomorrow I thought of you and when I did my heart was filled with sorrow But when I walked through heavens 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 and here it starts anew I promise no tomorrow but today will always last And since each day is the same day there’s no longing for the past But you have been so faithful so trusting and so true Though there were times you did some things you know you shouldn’t do But you have been forgiven and now at last you are free So wont you take my hand now 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 So no more tears I want to see, just a fleeting grin When you remember how we were, the trouble we got in So go on with your life now and keep smiling all the way For there is more to your life, don’t let it pass you by. So when tomorrow starts without me just remember I am near To guide you and love you like I always did, and take away your fear xxxxxxx
