Analysis of In The Stars
Mary Helen Trujillo 1987 (Colorado)
Thank you for being with me
For all those good times
You gave love so free
I know that sometimes
You’re right here with me
The pain in my soul
Is not all I know
There’s love and happiness
I remember your kiss
And your smile so bright
It lit up those dark times
In my life
I didn’t think I’d survive
And now time has gone by
Since you passed from this life
I don’t know where you are
But I know it’s not far
And I’ll always keep close
Your memory in my heart
Rest dearly now
Find peace and love
And when the time comes
I’ll see you in the stars
