Memories of you
Will stay in my heart forever
Memories of you
I will always treasure
Memories of you
make me feel warm inside
Memories of you
are the love I cannot hide
Memories of you
help me through the day
Memories of you
will never fade away
Memories of you
are beautiful and dear
They seem to grow still brighter
with every passing year

One Day Closer to You

I sometimes ask the Lord
Why He took you before me
And though He's never answered
I guess it was meant to be

I tell myself you're watching
That you're never far away
I sometimes feel the slightest touch
When I bow my head to pray.

I know heaven must have a window
With no curtain to hide the view
I know you must stand there often
And watch me missing you

I know you're helping me go on
You're guiding me through the pain
I somehow sense you're telling me
There's more sunshine now then rain

Each new day now dawns with meaning
Something inside of me rings so true
Today will slip into yesterday
And I'll be one day closer to you
