You may be gone from my sight and from my arms,

But in my heart you truly dwell—

Safe and without pain or fear.

When I held you for the last time and kissed you before you had to go

I told you the truth; you were always my favorite

And I couldn’t help but love you more.

As God is good, we will meet again

But please don’t blame me if I have to cry a little here on earth—

You were my favorite; I just couldn’t help it.

You are in my heart forever.
