Gaynor I read this and think of you. I know you will never be forgotten. It's not goodbye it's until we meet again. Yesterday she told you She’d been beckoned by the moon That she was to become a star And would be leaving soon And like a supernova You felt your heart collapse Knowing that the days ahead Would soon become her last But mop up all your tears And squeeze them out amongst the clouds Buy her favourite flower seeds And plant them in the ground Savour every smile of hers And send them to the sun Paint the sky her favourite pink As day has just begun Gather all the words she says And teach the birds her song So that the world still speaks of her Even when she’s gone So when the sun comes up You’ll know it’s her that’s smiling down And when it rains you’ll feel her love Escaping from the clouds Watch her flowers flourish And listen to the birds And hear them sing the echoes Of her voice and of her words Look for her in sunrises In thunderstorms and snow Because she’s trying to tell you She’ll be everywhere you go And when it’s dark, look for the stars And see the way she shines And realise, though she’ll leave She’ll never really say goodbye ******
