please don't mourn for me

I'm still here,

though you don't see.

I'm right by your side

each night and day

and within your heart

I long to stay.



  My body is gone

but I'm always near.

I'm everything

you feel, see or hear.

My spirit is free,

but I'll never depart

as long as you keep me

alive in your heart.



  I'll never wander out of your sight

I'm the brightest star

on a summer night.

I'll never be beyond your reach

I'm the warm moist sand

when you're at the beach.



  I'm the colorful leaves

when fall comes around

and the pure white snow

that blankets the ground.

I'm the beautiful flowers of

which you're so fond,

The clear cool water

in a quiet pond.



  I'm the first bright blossom

you'll see in the spring,

The first warm raindrop

that April will bring.

I'm the first ray of light

when the sun starts to shine,

and you'll see that the face

in the moon is mine.



  When you start thinking

there's no one to love you,

you can talk to me

through the Lord above you.

I'll whisper my answer

through the leaves on the trees

and you'll feel my presence

in the soft summer breeze.



  I'm the hot salty tears

that flow when you weep

and the beautiful dreams

that come while you sleep.

I'm the smile you see

on a baby's face.

Just look for me, friend,
