Don't look back when you head for the door, because if you do It'll Only Hurt More. Don't Stop to explain, and don't tell me why. If your going to leave, just say goodbye. I love you and I'll miss you, I can't make it alone. I want you and I need you, but I can hold my own. You have got to be free, I can't make you love only me. Don't look back I tell you again, just say goodbye if this is the end. I'll love you forever more, even though It'll Only Hurt More.

Here in my bed where I lie, over and over I ask myself why. Why I can't be living with you, instead I lie here Thinking Of You. I just want us to be alone, the two of us in our home. Someday it will be, that we'll have a family. My head is always in the blue, except when I'm Thinking Of You. I can never tell you how I really feel, because my heart turns as cold as steel. As I write this I hear love songs, Hoping that our relationship keeps going strong. I think I am going to cry, but my eyes are just too dry. I wish you were here for me to touch, because I care for you oh so much. When we first met I didn't know what to do, but all I know is I can't stop Thinking Of You. A lot of things go through my head, as I wish you were her next to me in bed. I just want you to know, that I'll always love you so. Remember no matter where I am or what I do, I am always Thinking Of You.

AFTER LIFE

As I walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, God will hold my hand, As he reassures me, I hear the angel�s heavenly band. My heart is confused and in pain, That�s when GOD said, �My troubles are all in vain.� I glance down at the world below, Watching things go by like a picture show. Feeling my family�s sadness and sorrow, From knowing that I won�t be there tomorrow. My eyes begin to water and tear, But yet once again, GOD says, �Have no fear. Because their sadness is nothing but love, They know you are safe with me above. They know you are doing well, From their smiles, you can tell.� Once I heard that, my eyes dried up, and I began to smile. It was so big, it could have been as long as a mile. I began to reflect on my life, Picturing not one, but every strife. Because I was able to see the ending view, I just knew I would pull through. Yes I am sad to have gone, But with GOD is where I belong. Knowing my family will join me one day, So once again laugh and play. To may family and friends, �Don�t be sad, because this isn�t the end.�
