I'm Still Here

      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.

      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.

      I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep and the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep. I'm the smile you see on a baby's face. Just look for me, friend, I'm everyplace!





      This could be heaven... This could be heaven
      This could be heaven for everyone

      In these days of cool reflection
      You come to me and everything seems alright
      In these days of cold affections
      You sit by me - and everything's fine

      This could be heaven for everyone
      This world could be fed, this world could be fun
      This could be heaven for everyone
      This world could be free, this world could be one

      In this world of cool deception
      Just your smile can smooth my ride
      These troubled days of cruel rejection, hmm
      You come to me, soothe my troubled mind

      Yeah, this could be heaven for everyone
      This world could be fed, this world could be fun
      This could be heaven for everyone, yeah
      This world should be free, this world could be one
      We should bring love to our daughters and sons
      Love, love, love, this could be heaven for everyone
      You know that
      This could be heaven for everyone
      This could be heaven for everyone

      Listen - what people do to their souls
      They take their lives - destroy their goals
      Their basic pride and dignity
      Is stripped and torn and shown to pity
      When this should be heaven for everyone
