If one day you find that I have left you Not by choice and not by plan Remember all the love I gave you And try your best to understand For the winds of time always move swiftly They say they wait for no man Now my dear I’m not complaining I’ve lived my life and took my stand And I loved you from the very first moment That I first held you in my hands I watched you grow and I grew with you As first you crawled and then you ran I’ve shared my heart with no one more purely For you are a part of who I am
If one day you find, you really miss me; Look around and I can’t be found Well cherish always the many moments That we both shared without a frown Because even though I loved you dearly I always knew this day would come It was my hope to be remembered Even when I am dead and gone And that on every Christmas Eve You'd raise a glass and sing my song
