Shadow

Once together we were happy
and we were so very young
Sadly now we have been parted
leaving me quite broken hearted
So many love songs still unsung
So many things still left to say
I did not leave without a care
I hope we meet again some day
I turn around to see you there
as though I had not gone away
Just list to me my one and only
should you hear a lonely sound
Drifting sweet secrets in the breeze
please feel that I am still around
I leave you sadly, deeply thinking
this is really not too fair
So very proud at having known you
finding such sweet love to share
We must bow to a higher power
when He comes to call us home
Leaving those we love behind us
to join us later when they come
Try to think of me with kindness
try to think of me with Love
One day please do come and join me
in a happy home above
