My love and I have a plan that needs to be carried out
We leave it in the trusted hands of our loved ones and there’s no doubt
There will come the day when the hearts that count all know
They’ll take us to the river where we’ll be one within its flow

We don’t know, yes no one does
We try not to think of such things
It’s harder for the living to live with the pain and the deep deep sorrow that death may bring

Beautiful souls that once shared our time
Here one moment then disappear with no sign leaving only their reflections in our minds
They’ve became a part of our hearts
There they’ll stay forever, never to part

Moments in time that will never be forgotten
Smiles and laughter, sorrows and tears
Memories pulled from the passing of the years
Gone but not forgotten are only words to say
We’ll never be forgotten, there’s just no way

Beautiful souls that now live on walls and mantles preserved in time within their frames
Images of who we knew and remembering all their names
Living with the question of what could have been
Living our lives beyond their years while missing all of them

My love and I have a plan that needs to be carried out
We leave it in the trusted hands of our loved ones and there’s no doubt
There will come the day when the hearts that count all know
They’ll take us to the river where we’ll be one within its flow
