You can shed tears that she is gone
Or you can smile because she has lived
You can close your eyes and pray that she’ll come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all she’s left
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her
Or you can be full of the love you shared
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday
She’s gone, but she’s not really gone
She’s living in your heart and soul
So celebrate the times that were good
And let your memories comfort you
Because she’s not really gone—she’s just not here with you.
