When Tomorrow Never Comes - Miscellaneous - http://maxpages.com/theemporium/When_Tomorrow_Never

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 love me,
as much as I love you,
and each time 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 whom 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
and so much 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 the love we shared
and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
I thought, just for awhile,
I'd 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 wordly things
that I'd 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 for life on earth is past
but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
but today will always last,
and since each day's the same day,
there's no longing for the past.
But 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 take my hand and share my life with me?"

So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
for everytime you think of me,
I'm right here in your heart.
