when tomorrow starts without me
and i'm not there to see
if the sun should rise
and find your eyes
all filled with tears
for me
i wish so much you wouldn't cry
the way you did today
while thinking of the many things
we didn't get to say
i know how much you loved me
as much as i love you
and each time that you think of me
i know you'll miss me too
but when tomorrow starts without me
please try to understand
that an angel came
and called my name
and took me by the hand
and said my place was ready
in heaven far above
and that id have to leave behind
all those i dearly love
but as i turned to walk away
a tear fell from my eye
for all my life id always thought
i didn't want to die
i had so much to live for
so much yet left to do
it seemed almost impossible
that i was leaving you
i thought of all the yesterdays
the good ones and the bad
and i thought of all the love we shared
and all the fun we had
if i could relive yesterday
just even for a while
id say goodbye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile
but then i fully realized
that this could never be
for emptiness
and memories
would take the place of me
and when i thought of worldly things
i might miss come tomorrow
i thought of you
and when i did
my heart was filled with sorrow
and when i walked through heaven's gates
i felt so much at home
when god looked down and smiled at me
from his great and golden throne
he said this is eternity
and all i've promised you
today your life on earth is passed
but here life starts
anew
i promise no tomorrow
but today will always last
and since each day is the same
theres no longing for the past
you have been so faithful
so trusting and so true
and there were times
you did some things
you knew
you shouldn't do
but you have been forgiven
and now at last
you're free
so won't you come and take my hand
and share my life
with me
