Let There be no Sadness

BY CAROLE NICHOLS

Were my eyes to close forever,
Were my heart to cease it's steady beat;
Celebrate my life, please don't mourn,
For you have made my life complete.

Should eternity come before the dawn,
Were my soul to begin it's flight;
I would leave with no regrets, dear,
You have made my world so right.

If you want to hold my memory,
Remember the joy in my eyes of jade;
Remember the sound of my laughter,
Remember the love, together, we made.

Remember our times in the sunshine,
When the world spun perfectly;
We found something special together,
Let there be no sadness from you for me.

And if you believe in forever,
Then know in your heart, I'll be there,
Waiting to continue our journey,
The fruits of our love, continue to share.
