I Hope You can Hear Me
Kirk Santana 1980 (San Diego)
I hope you can hear me
When I think of you and get an overwhelming sense of bitter-sweet glee
For all the good times we shared are engraved in my memory
Bitter for future events without you that I think of in my reveries
I will do my best to hold my head high
Even when, thoughts of missing you make me want to cry
Instead, I will feel your warmth when I look to the sky
For I know I will see you again and this is not goodbye
I hope you can hear me
My greatest wish is that you are at peace with the almighty
A belief I will cherish and hold tightly
As I keep your memory alive every day and nightly
In doing so will help you shine through me brightly
I hope you can hear me
Be well wherever you are
I know you will always be near yet far
Like the night sky with a big twinkling star
I will love you forever and always from afar
I hope you can hear me
It’s time to say good night
A thought that fills me with fright
But rest assured your memory will fill my heart with delight
Giving me the strength I need to be alright
Rest in peace
Now that you are deceased
