Seasons of the Heart
You have been gone now for so many long years,
Over that time, I have shed so many tears.
It was wintertime when God took you away,
My life has never been the same since that sad day.
In the Springtime, when I looked at the flowers in bloom,
Because you could not see them again, I felt such gloom.
Life goes on, day after day, year after year,
How much I wish that you were near!
They say that the Lord has his reasons,
And everything has its own season.
But I have wondered so many times,
Why you had to be taken in your prime!
Though you cannot be here with me,
In my heart, you will always be.
For that special love will never go away,
And together in Heaven, we will be some day!
