Notes About The Poem

Remembering the good things.....may be the best part of tomorrow.

The Song

We spent the weekend up in old Santa Fe
You're crying as we're driving away
Why did it have to end
We say again and again

'Like when we pulled away from Valley View
That little house...we made brand new
It was a sight to see......
Then we had to leave

Remember little Shari's first day of school
She didn't wanna let go of you...
She held on tight....
You said...It'll be alright

And those Christmases at your mom and dad's
'Still laughing at the fun we all had
.....Those bittersweet goodbyes..
Are treasured in our lives

The sun will take the mountain snow
Yesterday is gone.....
But that can't change the love we know
Sweet memories....live on....

And when the dance is over....
We'll still have.....the song
There will always be.....
The song
