This is a special day
I hold dear to my heart.
Your memories I have inside,
for now we are apart.

You were always full of hope
and gave all your love.
I know your in God's hands,
the father up above.

Inside me is where you live,
in a special place.
When I need some cheering up,
I see your smiling face.

Though I may not hear you laugh
or hold your hand today.
I cherish every moment that
you gave me everyday.

When times get tough
and I feel I can't go on.
I know that you would tell
me just be strong.

Your life may have ended
before your time.
But I know God has helped me
by letting your memory shine.

The comfort I have today is
knowing that you are free.
It's just really hard to let go of
what use to be.

You enriched my life
more than I can ever say.
That is why I remember it's
your birthday today.

As I smile and sing
Happy Birthday to you!
In my heart I remember
all the memories too.

And when the time comes for
us to see each other again.
I know you'll be there waiting
to show me the way in.
