Never Good-Bye
When someone you love passes on and it's their time to part
They'll always live on through your heart
Although they could no longer survive
Through beautiful memories you keep them alive
Through each and every life they ever did touch
Through special moments and bonds you cling to and clutch
Passing stories on to generations to be told
Priceless memories that can never be sold
Time with loved ones always seems to brief
Even though you can't see or touch them they're still with you through all of your heartache and grief
If you pay close attention they'll send signs from Heaven letting you know they're still there
Maybe a reminder as simple as a warm gentle breeze blowing through your hair
Perhaps as the warmth of the bright burning sun touches your face
You take a walk down memory lane with thoughts of them you embrace
Broken hearted as you're driving along
At random you smile as you hear their favorite song
Taking comfort and eating their favorite food or a special recipe they'd prepare
Remembering they'd pour into everything the most tender loving care
A piece of them is with you always, a loved one is never really truly gone
Through all of their loved ones they'll always carry on
They'd want you to keep living for we're all well worth the wait
It'll be the most beautiful of reunions as they stand gracefully with open arms at those Pearly Gates
As your hearts filled with sorrow, never forgotten it's never good-bye
Like your beautiful Heaven bound guardian angel continue to spread your wings and fly
