If tears could build a stairway

If tears could build a stairway,

And memories a lane.

I would walk right up to Heaven

And bring you home again.

No farewell words were spoken,

No time to say “Goodbye”,

You were gone before I knew it,

And only God knows why.

My heart still aches with sadness,

And secret tears still flow.

What it meant to love you

No one can ever know.

But now I know you want me

To mourn for you no more.

To remember all the happy times

Life still has much in store.

Since you’ll never be forgotten,

I pledge to you today-

A hallowed place within my heart

Is where you’ll always stay.
