As I Bid My Soul Mate Good-Bye

I won't be here tomorrow,love,and so I write The sweetest whisperings of my soul to you tonight I need to let you know just what you mean to me When I was blinded by life's sorrows you helped me see My deaf ears heard no music so you sang your songs Everything you did was right and erased all wrongs In blackest night opened my window and showed me stars Introduced me to the meaning of Venus and Mars In my loneliness wrapped your arms around me tight If ever I was scared you chased away my fright When I was thirsty,let me drink from your loving cup And when I needed my soul fed you filled me up My sweet darling ,you're the finest man around Telling me all I need to know without a sound So now my time draws near and how I hate to go Leaving you here without me but it must be so I'll be near you always,you can count on that I am that little breeze that blows away your hat If you hear lovers laughing,that will be me too An angel in the mist,I will watch over you So as I write these words I say good-bye my love One day you'll be beside me in that glory above * for contest "If I Had One Day To Live" sponsored by Walayee Whitlock
