When Tomorrow Starts Without Me
When tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand,
that an angel came and called my name, and took me by the hand;
the angel said my place was ready, in Heaven far above,
and that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love.
But when I walked through Heaven's Gates, I felt so much at home,
for God looked down, smiled at me, and told me "Welcome Home. "
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me, I'm right there in your heart.
