So maybe today the sun isn’t shining
And the clouds hide you from my view,
But know there’ll always be a tomorrow,
A tomorrow full of you.
And even if you’re leaving,
I know it’s not goodbye.
As long as we’re both still breathing,
There’s no reason to cry.
I’ll find you somewhere in this world
So you won’t be gone to me forever,
We’ll be united once again,
There are no ropes we cannot tether.
I’ll miss you more than you will know,
But that won’t break my wings,
We’re still connected at the heart,
So I’ll still be flying.
And even if you took a piece of my heart away,
Things are still okay.
My heart will always be beating in your hand,
Because you understand.
You’re never gone,
You’re always mine,
And when you’re lost
I’ll always find you.
So if you’re not sitting next to me
Every second of the day,
I can still remember what used to be
And say what I need to say.
And though you’re gone,
You’re never gone.
Your memory still lives.
It pains me to leave you,
But I know it’s not goodbye,
I’ll always be with you
If you look into my eyes.
And I know that I’ll still miss you
But I know that I won’t cry.
You’ll never see a single tear
Fall from my sad blue eyes.
It still won’t be the same without you
But everything’s okay.
Although you’re gone,
You’re never gone.
Your memory still lives.
So I won’t cry as we say goodbye,
I’ve said what I needed to say,
The words that were always unspeakable
Aren’t unspeakable today.
As long as you know that it’s true,
I will today, tomorrow, and forever love you.
And so you’re gone,
But you’re never gone.
Your memory still lives.
