Epitaphs Remembering their journey. epitaphs
Look for me in Rainbows Time for me to go now, I won t say goodbye; Look for me in rainbows, way up in the sky. In the morning sunrise, when all the world is new, Just look for me and love me, as you know I loved you. Time for me to leave you, I won t say goodbye; Look for me in rainbows, high up in the sky. In the evening sunset, when all the world is through, Just look for me and love me, and I ll be close to you. It won t be forever, the day will come and then; My loving arms will hold you, when we meet again. Time for us to part now, we won t say goodbye; Look for me in rainbows, shining in the sky. Every waking moment, and all your whole life through, Just look for me and love me, as you know I loved you. Just wish me to be near you, And I ll be there with you. ~Vicky Brown
