For now

Makeiska sias 1991 (United States)



Angel here on earth my best friend. I guess he knew what you were worth and he needed you with him. You lifted me up when I was down, sometimes I can still feel you around. I know you are in a better place where the road stretches out in front of you. I'm alone. But, I'll see you again someday for now the memories will do. When you gave me that smile, I was looking at heaven. The years that you were here, we were blessed with what we were given. We know you are still here, we can feel your warmth and the love you gave. I know you are in a better place where the road stretches out in front of you, "Could you send me a wave"? I'm alone. I will see you again someday but for now the memories will do. Oh for now the memories will have to do.
