Goodbye Is Not Forever

Going away and to never return
On a journey far from here
Over the the horizon is where you would go
Destiny waits and take you to that place
Beyond the skies where angels dwell
Your home in heaven awaits to welcome you
Eternal peace shall embrace you when you sleep

I will miss you when you are gone
Sadness and sorrow will fill my heart

Never will I see you again in this life but I pray
One sweet day we'll see each other again
There in heaven where we will forever stay

From here I'll send my prayers and kisses to you
On the whispering winds that rise up to the sky
Remember me when you're way up there
Everyday of my life I shall think of our time
Verses we shared shall be played in my mind
Every time you are missed and thought of
Remembering is the only way to keep you with me-alive in my memory
