You Live On
by Paul Korda
It makes me sad
To think you have gone
I know how much
You would have loved to live on.
There's an empty space
That you used to fill,
I wish your liveliness
Could be here still
What else seemed right,
After you were taken.
The endless nights,
I wished you'd return
And only Life, with it's magic moments
Helps me believe you live on.
I remember you singing,
Making up a song,
I would fall asleep, singing along
If there's a heaven,
That's where you belong
Through the part of you in me
You live on
What else seemed right,
After you were taken
I see you in my children,
Oh how they've grown.
Through the part of you in us,
We're never alone.
However hard the journey,
We'll all come home.
Through the part of you in us,
You live on.
What else seemed right
My mother was a singer/songwriter, and I wrote this about her passing,
and how she lives in me, not only genetically, but also her talent,
her view on life. I believe we are all connected to our ancestors, and
are capable of drawing knowledge and strength from those who have gone
before us. Also, what we do, and learn from our life here, becomes
available for future generations.
