You never said you were leaving,

You never said goodbye.

You were gone before I knew it,

and only God knew why.

A million times I needed you,

A million times I have cried.

If love alone could have saved you,

You never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,

In death I love you still.

In my heart, you hold a place

No one could ever fill.

It broke my heart to lose you,

But you did not go alone.

For part of me went with you,

the day God took you home.
