We lived our life together
I loved you with all my heart and soul
But the body can grow weak and tired
As old age takes its toll
Then one night as we slept
I heard someone call my name
It was time for me to leave
That night when the angels came
I know you've felt so alone
Since that night we had to part
So I've walked with you always
And I've often touched your heart
I'm now the gentle breeze around you
I carry the laughter of children at play
I'm the first ray of sunshine
That touches you each day
I'm the fleeting shadow you see
From the corner of your eye
I'm the single drop of rain
That falls from the sky
I'm the scent of the flower
The stillness of night
The warmth of the fire
The brilliance of light
From the earth beneath your feet
To beyond the eagle that soars
Of all that is earthly
The spirit is more
I've shed my earthly cocoon
And spread my wings in flight
I've danced upon the rainbow
And walked in heavens light
And when it finally comes to pass
And your long day is done
The trumpets of heaven will sound
Reuniting us as one
Only then will I pass through heavens door
And gladly step inside
Then and only then
With you my love, by my side.
