'Time'
Time with its measureless
Passing of suns
Brings moments of magic
That can’t be undone
Your smile like the sunshine
Yet greets me at dawn
The sound of your laughter
Still rings on and on
Though gone from my presence
You live in my heart
The bond hasn’t altered
Since we’ve been apart
Though night brings a shadow
And often a tear
I am with you in spirit
I’ll always be near
For as time dims the eye
And quiets the ear
I will love you forever
And ever my dear
Now yesterday’s daydreams
Have faded to gray
And a song leads us onward
As we soar away
To a land where there’s never
A reason to cry
And never forever
A time for goodbye
