Drowning in a
Sea of hope
Of all the things
To come

There's so much more
Behind closed doors
Than the mind can ever
Dream

A future
Bright as the sun
But a dark path
To get there

We only make it
Through when
We realize
All that's in store
for us

Life will give you
As much as you give life
So give everything you've got
For if you give it nothing
You will have
Nothing

I never got to
Say good bye
To you

Never got to tell you
I loved you
Again

I was on my way
To see you
But you were so far away
On life support

You fought for a long time
Through the pain

"This is terminal"
They said
Incurable
They said
All they could do
Was make you comfortable
As you lie
On your death bed

They buried you
Next to your brother
My grandfather
You spoke great things of him
But we'd never met
But now you're reunited
After twenty years
Of silence

Never did my heart
Cease to hurt
Sense you left us that day

I remember when you passed
Your husband called
He was crying
I still hear it like it was yesterday
"Junie's gone, Ginger"
He said to my mom
We just got on the road to see you
But you were already
Gone

Time passes on
Without you
But for me
Time stands still
When I think of you

Your beauty
Blue eyes
Golden heart
Larger than the sky

Dancing with the angels
In the clouds
Somewhere
I know you're patiently
Waiting
for me to meet you there
