Story Behind The Song
I received an email from a friend and was so inspired by the story, wrote a song about death called: If Tomorrow Starts WIthout Me. I was so touched by this song I called to read the lyrics to my family in the states, which I never do. I did not realize this song was actually for 'me' to prepare and help me through the passing of my son six weeks later. It does give me strength though...until I see him again.

IF TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME
If tomorrow starts without me
And I miss the rising sun
If today's the very last day
I can do what must be done
I will take the time to say kind words
Make lasting memories
Make today a day of true love,
If tomorrow starts without me.
If tomorrow starts without me
Please don't fill your eyes with tears
For whatever time I've had
I've had the very best of years
And I'll find that greater realm of life
Where spirits know they're free
And I'll feel your love forever,
If tomorrow starts without me.
Every flower that blooms, every bird that sings,
In Nature's purest law
Tells me life goes on, proves to me God's hand,
Of which I stand in awe.
I can't help but feel a sadness
When I know its time to go
But I pray the hours that we're apart
Will pass before we know.
If tomorrow starts without me
Don't forget to live today
Tell each person, friend and stranger,
That you pass along the way
That their worth is so important
He died that we might be
In the arms of love forever...
Though tomorrow starts without me.
