We Can't Believe You're Gone

We Can’t Believe You’re Gone


Dad, our sadness knows no end;
We can’t believe you’re gone;
We’re grieving for you every day;
It’s hard to carry on.


You were always there to support and care,
When we needed a true friend,
How we’ll ever do without our dad,
We cannot comprehend.


You were our teacher and our guide,
Our dad, so good and strong;
Your example will sustain us now,
And last our whole lives long.


We’re trying to communicate;
We hope that you can hear;
Expressing what we feel for you,
Helps us feel you’re near.


Our memories of the times we had
Help the pain to go away.
But Dad, our lives won’t be the same;
We’ll miss you every day.


A part of us went with you;
You left a gap too big to fill;
You’re our father and our hero;
We love you and we always will.

All our love Jordan & Macy X

Time

I thought that time was healing
All the while the mask was worn
That underneath a new me was waiting
to be born
But now i find I am the mask
It helps to keep me safe
So that though my heart is breaking
You wont see it in my face
I thought that time was healing All these tears my eyes have seen This aching heart that misses you could be satisfied with dreams But here i am in pain again and the healing stands alone A partner, son & daughter who weeps for the world to see For a Partner& Dad who cant come home xxxxx

Somwhere a journey begins at the end,
Of the worldly existence we know,
Somewhere a path stretches over the skies,
And rivers of memory flow,
Somewhere a silence is heard far away,
As the brightness of day fills the night,
Where trials of life are resolved into peace,
When a soul finds its way to the light. xxx

If heaven had a phone

I can not dial your number,
I can't get throught to you,
I called the operator,
She did all that she could do.

There is no code to heaven,
I can not place the call,
No numbers left to try,
I reckon i've tried them all.

If heaven had a phone,
I'd ring you every day,
If heaven had a phone,
There's things i wanna say.

Tell you that i love you,
Miss you since you went away,
And how much i prayed to god,
That he could let you stay.

Oh darling if heaven had a phone,
There's things i want to know,
Things i want to tell you,
How do you feel,
Should i stay or should i go.

Are you looking over me,
Do you see me cry a tear,
Questions i wanna ask,
Answers i need to hear.

If heaven had a phone,
I'd ring you every day,
My life has had no meaning,
Since the day god took you away,
I only know the sadness,
More tears again today.

Maybe one day i'll smile without you,
Until then i will always cry,
One day the sun may shine for me,
Like it did for you and i.

My life was for tomorrow,
now my life is yesterday,
I cannot face this world alone,
Please show me the way.

If heaven had a phone,
I'd ring you every day,
If heaven had a phone,
I'd hear your voice, know your'e okay.

I just want to speak to heaven,
please do you have a direct line,
Operator says no number,
But your loved one says their doing fine

If Tomorrow Starts Without Me

IF TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME



'If 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 love 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 I'd 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, I'd always thought, I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for, So much left yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible, That I was leaving you.

I thought of all the yesterdays, The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all that we shared, And all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday, Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye 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.

But when I walked through heaven's gates, I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me, From His great golden throne,
He said, 'This is eternity, And all I've promised you.'
Today your life on earth is past, but here life starts anew.

I promise no tomorrow, But today will always last,
And since each day's the same way, There's no longing for the past.
You have been so faithful, So trusting and so true.
Though 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?
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me, I'm right here, in your heart. '

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, 'I welcome you
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......'My day was not in vain.'
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

With You Always

As The Sun Came Up This Morning
I Watched You There Below
Your Hearts Seemed Oh So Heavy
But There’s Something You Should Know
I’m Not Gone Don’t Worry
I’m Just A Step Ahead
And I’m With You Every Single Day
As You Rise Up From Your Bed
I Am The Sun That Warms You
I Am The Moon’s Soft Glow
I Am The Stars That Twinkle
And Light Your Path Below
So When At Times You Miss Me
Just Look For Me I’m There
For You Cannot Hide My Spirit
It Is With You Everywhere
