Know I'm Always There
I didn’t choose to leave you
For here I don’t belong
But Heaven is my home now
So please my love be strong
I know you cannot hear me
So I'm sending you this prayer
I need for you close your eyes
And feel that I'm still there
When no one’s there to hold you up
You don’t know what to do
When your legs will walk no more
I will carry you
When you stumble down and fall
Take my hand and rise
For when you cannot find your way
I will be your eyes
So lift your eyes when nights are long,
And whisper out my name,
For love like ours can’t fade away,
A love, not even death can change
Know that when you’re crying
I will wipe away your tears
When dreams are there to haunt you
I will fight away your fears
When loneliness surrounds you
And covers you with fear
Know I’m standing by your side
Know I'm always here
When you feel you can’t go on
When pain is just too real
Know I’ll never leave
Until your scars begin to heal
When dark descends upon you
And sleep no longer comes
I will lie beside you
Till you see the rising sun
I’m only just beyond the sky
Not very far from you
Though you can’t see or touch my hand
My love will pull you through
I know you’ll keep me in your heart
Even though I'm gone
For time cannot erase our love
In you, it will live on...
