When tomorrow starts without me,
and I am not there to see.
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
all filled with tears for me;
know how much you love me,
as much as I love you.
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.
So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we are far apart,
for every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.
