In memory of a loved one

In memory of a loved one

We thought of you with love today

But that is nothing new,

We thought about you yesterday´

And days before that too.

We think of you in silence

We often speak your name,

Now all we have are memories

And your picture in a frame.

Some may think you are forgotten

Though on earth you are no more,

But in our memory you are with us

As you always were before.

A million times we've thought of you

A million times we've cried,

If loving could have saved you

You would have never died.

You left us beautiful memories

Your love is still our guide,

And though we cannot see you

You are always at our side.

It broke our hearts to lose you

But you did not go alone,

Part of us went with you

On the day God called you home.

Forgive me Lord, I'll always weep

For the best friend I loved,

but could not keep.
