When I Am Gone, I Am Still Here

When i am gone and you can no longer see my face, Just know in my heart you'll never be replaced When i am gone, left you without a goodbye or a trace, When my absence makes itself known and your life like footsteps take on a sadder, slower pace remember i am always here, always near Can you feel me wipe away your tears? Whispering in your ear Informing you that better days are near and you have nothing to fear for my arms wrap Around you becoming your shield My words are growing thin and i have nothing more to say Just remember even when I'm gone, I am never too far away.... I am still here
