First the minutes pass
hours turn into days
week turn into months
time just slips away

A year has gone by now
a little older a little more gray
I so needed to hear your voice
but your call never came

I looked at myself in the mirror
peering into my soul
I began to realize
time is beginning to take it's toll

I take a deep breath
then let it out with a sigh
I try to remember back to past days
memories of happier times

Though those precious moments
may have been few
with each passing day
brings a hope renewed

If I am to be remembered
I hope the good out weighs the bad
I hope I lifted your spirits
on the days that you were sad

Looking out my window now
watching the sun as it sets
what a wonderful feeling it would be
if you were here in my arms to rest

You will always have a place
inside my heart my dear
I hope if you ever think of me
it will be because I brought a little cheer

I turn back and look at the phone
I pray now that it doesn't ring
because it breaks my heart to know
it won't be you calling me
