Lyrics
There were so many good things I wanted to say
Things so important to me
There were so many good things I wanted to do
But only with you
Now it's been so many days since you went away
To another place in time forever
I hope you can hear me when I say
Always will I love you
And I'll always hold you near
Always and forever you are here
So many times in the day I've called out your name
But you never answer me
So many people have come and gone in my life
But no one like you
and every day when I wake
I say to myself
I've got to try and go on living
Cause I'll always have my memories of you.
Always will I love you
And I'll always hold you near
Always and forever you are here.
