Remembered Joy

It’s been 3 long years now since you had to go But I know you can hear me when I say my love for you is timeless and this I think you know And when the good lord came to take you my tears I couldn’t hide It’s been very hard without you here by my side CHORUS I’ve tried very hard to fathom why he came for you I’ve heard it said only the good die young and in your case this is true So when the rain is falling gently on our window pane It’s raining in my heart and the tears are for you Jane Wherever you are my love do not be scared I think back to all the good times we’ve shared All the fun and laughter all the remembered joy And my mind wanders back to when we first met as a young girl and boy We had so many adventures we said we would never be parted And then it hits me again you’re not here and again I’m broken-hearted CHORUS The winters here now and you used to love this time of year And as I wander over snow peaked hills I really want you here The snowball fights and romantic nights in front of a roaring fire If I said I was through all this then I would be a liar CHORUS If god were to take me now I’d give my life to be with you It breaks my heart to think you’re on your own after all we’ve been through But he must have a higher plan so I shall bide my time I love you Jane you’re all I am and you will always be mine CHORUS So in my darkest hours as I lie here on my own Even though you’re not here my love for you as still deeper grown And as I say a prayer for the good lord to look over you I’m just waiting for the day the lord takes me to I know you will be waiting for me with love in your heart Because when I was 6 and you were 5 we made a vow to never part CHORUS
