I WAIT FOR YOU

An hourglass sifts the sands of time
since I left this old world far behind
so I wait for you to join me and find
a shadow of memory in your mind.

That I would be the first to go away
was not in my plans (or so they say)
Growing old was not a real excuse.
I gave up trying, for what's the use?

The love we shared was meant to be,
open for all the world to look and see.
A destiny claimed, yet my life denied,
I went to Heaven - just for the ride.

No more heartache, no more pain,
what once was will surely come again.
Until that time you are called home,
then I will never ever again be alone.

I wait for you -
