As I sit here by my bedside
Tears overflow my eyes
I think of you and times we had
I think of what we said
The days ahead still to unfold
A future still to be seen
If I knew then what I know now
You wouldn't be in my dreams
So many times we hear it said
Hold tight to those that we don't want to forget
There comes a time for everyone
We go with God above
And memories are all we have left to love
Though your home is still in passing view
I feel so far away
Is my voice still clear from where you are?
Don't tell me it's fading away
My heart beats sore because I know
You tried so hard to stay
I'll run to you, I'll bid adieu
My home down here someday
So many times we hear it said
Hold tight to those that we don't want to forget
There comes a time for everyone
We go with God above
And memories are all we have left to love
There comes a time for everyone
We go with God above
And memories are all we have left to love
You went with God above
And memories are all I have left to love
