The Rose
By Bette Midler

Never wanting to leave the side of the one who loves me so.
Feeling deep within my heart the sadness he would know.
Seeing oh so clearly all the pain the future would hold.
Never being able to share the things I had been told.

Knowing my departure would one day cause his heart to break.
Nothing words alone could say would ease that lonely ache
In all I knew so long before the time I had to go.
There was no way I could share with him so I could let him know.

My time with him was planned from long before we both would live.
I would be sent to teach him how to love and show him how to give.
When that task was complete I would be taken from his side.
And I would then watch him from above as silver tears he cried.

So when that time came I knew just how to comfort his aching. soul
To bring him peace of heart and somehow make him whole.
A part of him I took with me and left my heart behind.
To give him hope and carry him and ease his troubled mind.

I would whisper to him on soft warm winds each night as he looked and saw my star.
And let him know in troubled times it was not so very far.
That he could touch me with his heart and I would be right there.
To wipe away each silver tear and all his burdens share.

So in your troubled times my friend just look toward the sky.
Let the tears flow freely as your aching heart does cry.
And know we are connected as you walk along life's way.
You are carried in this silver heart forever and one day.

Look up into the starry sky
Look up I may be flying by
Look out on a summer day
You may think I've gone away.
I understand
what you whispered to me
I understand
You had to set me free
You were here for me
when I went away
You were here for me
I'm with you everyday
I know of the times that you do cry
I know of the times you wanted to die
I'm the tears on your pillow
I'm the wishes in your dreams
I'm the stars in the sky
No need to wonder why
Think of all the fun we had
Think of all we were -you're my dad
Daddy think of me once in a while
Daddy think of me now and smile
Please
Daddy think of me now and smile .
