I picture you walking up the path
and walking through the door
I listen out for your gentle laugh
but i cant hear it anymore
I hold my hands out everyday
Hoping for your gentle touch
But i dont feel your warm hands touch me
Its a feeling i miss so much
I wait for you to wipe my tears
But you want yours wiping too
And everyday still hurts so much
Because my life is missing you
I keep your memory in my soul
It burns so bright each day
And all the things i have in my mind
Theres three words i want to say
I Miss You XXXX
I Still Miss You
Months have passed.. the questions remain!
Why have you left us? Were you in pain?
The questions still spin around in my head,
i just cant believe that my granda is dead.
One laugh, One hug, even one last cry,
I need one final moment to say my goodbye!
we'll meet again
We hold you close within our hearts
And there you shall remain....
To walk with us throughout our lives
until we meet again.
So rest in peace precious loved one
we send thanks for all the love youve given....
We know that you are with God
until we meet again one sweet day in Heaven xx
miss you
Every Second of Every Minute
Every Minute Of Every Hour
Every Hour Of Every Day
We Love And Miss You So Much
*Robert Gardner*
With love
god looked around his garden
and found an empty space,
he then looked down upon this earth
and saw your lovely face.
he put his arms around you
and lifted you to rest,
his garden must be beautiful
he only takes the best.
he knew that you were suffering
he knew you were in pain,
and he knew that you would never be
happy on earth again.
he saw your path was difficult
he closed your tired eyes,
he whispered to you 'peace be thine'
and gave you wings to fly.
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
For you
If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
and share with you its beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea
But all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be what I know best
A friend who's always there.
