You can shed tears that he is gone or you can smile because he has lived
You can close your eyes and pray that he'll come back or you can open your eyes and see all he's left
Your heart can be empty because you can't see him or you can be full of the love you shared
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday
You can remember him and only that he's gone or you can cherish his memory and let it live on
