In Memory Of

Listen to the epitaph reading in the papers how they summarized your life into one small page. How i burn to hear your voice or see that smile once again it's weird seeing your face on the obituary's, the hurt turning into rage. And in your memory i'll go on for you and in your memory there's nothing i wouldn't do in your memory i know that you'll never fade away in your memory i'll live on for another day. When i was young i remember you taking care of me, now looking down on me, are you proud of the person i turned out to be? Are you that shining star in the sky at night? Or the brightest ray of sunlight? or was that your perfume i smelled when the wind picked up just right? The pretty shadow that i see? And in your memory i'll go on for you and in your memory there's nothing i wouldn't do in your memory i know that you'll never fade away in your memory i'll live on for another day.
