Friend, please don't mourn for me
I'm still here, though you don't see.
I'm right by your side each night and day
and within your heart I long to stay.

My body is gone but I'm always near.
I'm everything you feel, see or hear.
My spirit is free, but I'll never depart
as long as you keep me alive in your heart.

I'll never wander out of your sight-
I'm the brightest star on a summer night.
I'll never be beyond your reach-
I'm the warm moist sand

when you're at the beach.

I'm the colorful leave

 when fall comes around
and the pure white snow

that blankets the ground.
I'm the beautiful flowers

of which you're so fond,
The clear cool water in a quiet pond.

I'm the first bright blossom

you'll see in the spring,
The first warm raindrop

that April will bring.
I'm the first ray of light

 when the sun starts to shine,
and you'll see that

the face in the moon is mine.

When you start thinking

there's no one to love you,
you can talk to me through the Lord above you.
I'll whisper my answer

through the leaves on the trees,
and you'll feel my presence

in the soft summer breeze.

Just look for me, friend,

I'm everyplace!
