In The Stars



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
