Meet Me There

Meet me there ...
Be it rain or shine,
Since I like both
Any weather is fine

Find me there ...
With those already met,
To mingle there ...
With ones I haven't yet

In a good place where 
We can laugh and smile,
And talk to the ones
Not seen in awhile 

I'll be going there
When my time comes,
I'll be waiting there
With my old chums

Promise me now ...
You will cry no tears,
And meet me there 
In one hundred years.
