I thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new,
I thought about you yesterday.
And the day before that too.
I think of you in silence,
I often speak your name,
Now all I have is memories,
And your picture in a frame,
Your memory is my keepsake,
With which I'll never part,
God has you in his keeping,
I have you in my heart.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
If tears could build a stairway
and thoughts a memory lane
I'd walk right up to heaven
and bring you home again
No Farewell words were spoken
No time to say good-bye
You were gone before I knew it
And only God knows why.
My heart's still active in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know.
But now I know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store.
Since you'll never be forgotten
I pledge to you today
A hallowed place within my heart
Is where you'll always stay.
God knows why, with chilling touch,
Death gathers those we love so much,
And what now seems so strange and dim,
Will all be clear, when we meet Him.
I Knew you for a Moment
