WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME

When tomorrow starts without me and I’m not here to see

If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me

I wish you wouldn’t cry the way you did today

While thinking of the many things we did not get to say

I know how much you love me as much as I love you

Each time that you think of me I know you will miss me too

When tomorrow starts with out me please try to understand

That an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand

The angel said my place was ready in heaven far above

And That I would 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 golden throne.

He said This Is Eternity and All I promised you.
