A Million Tears

If I cried a million tears, would that bring back my baby
Would it take away the pain and maybe
Fill the hole in my heart

If I cried a million tears would that fill the bed that’s empty
Would it stop the love that tempts me
Not to make a new start

Well, I’ve cried two million tears and I still long for that soft touch
But the memories of so , so much
Will never dim

For after all is done and tears have subsided
We will all be united
And I will always love him




In Memory of my little Hudson

Lovely! I have never lost anyone so close to me so I will not pretend to know this pain. But you have that last stanza right. You will see him again. - Dean
