In Loving Memory of those who have left us

Keep You In My Heart

(a very rough version of this song can be downloaded here)

I saw your body laid to rest, I knew you weren’t there
You left this place some days before; a spirit in the air.
Tonight, we get together while you visit Summerland
We hope that we will meet again and then walk hand in hand

And we will tell your stories and we will sing your songs
And we will still remember you long after you are gone
For we have been together as now we are apart
And you are with me always since I keep you in my heart

We miss you friend, child, and lover, miss you sister, miss you mother
We miss you so much now that you are gone, leaving all of us to carry on.

I’ve known you just a little while, I’ve know you all my life
You brought me into this world, you comfort me in strife
You’ve been many things to many people you've always played your parts
You travel now in Summerland, though you’re alive in all our hearts

And we will tell your stories and we will sing your songs
And we will still remember you long after you are gone
For we have been together as now we are apart
And you are with me always since I keep you in my heart

We miss you husband, son and brother, miss you father, miss you lover.
We miss you so much now that you are gone, leaving all of us to carry on.

I saw my body laid to rest I knew that you were there
I left this place some days before, a spirit in the air
Tonight you get together while I visit Summerland
I hope that we will meet again and then walk hand in hand

And you will tell my stories and you will sing my songs
And you will still remember me long after I am gone
For we have been together as now we are apart
And I am with you always since you keep me in your heart
They are with you always when you keep them in your heart

Man, I am so bummed out about DarthSane. He was one of the more erudite liberals at UF. I had some fun posts with him.

it's too bad no one could talk him out of it. Someone yesterday mentioned that he used to post under another nick a while back, too, but I don't know what that was.
