I saw your eyes in the window pane as I watched the falling rain: It seemed as each raindrop fell it quietly said your name. I held you close in my heart today it made me feel complete; You may have died…but you are not gone you will always be a part of me.As long as the sun shines…the wind blows…the rain falls… You will live on inside of me forever for that is all my heart knows(sic).”
