When Tomorrow Starts Without Me
When tomorrow starts without me
And I'm not there to
see
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for
me.
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did
today
While thinking of the many things
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And
each time that you think of me
I know you'll miss me too
But when tomorrow starts without me
Please try to
understand
That an angel came and called my name
And took me by the
hand
And said my place was ready
In heaven far above
And that
I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love
But when I walked through heaven's gates
I felt so much at
home
When God looked down and smiled at me
From His great golden
throne
He said, "This is eternity
And all I've promised you
Today
for life on earth is past
But here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow
For today will always last,
And
since each day's the same way
There's no longing for the past.
So when tomorrow starts without me
Don't think we're far
apart,
For every time you think of me
I'm right here in your
heart.
