A friend shared this song with me last night. I wanted to share it with you this morning. Today, July 31st, is the anniversary of my Dad’s death. He passed away unexpectedly in 2008. This song, by the group Westlife, is called “I’ll See You Again.” Click HERE to listen to it. Here are the lyrics:

Always you will be part of me
And I will forever feel your strength
When I need it most
You’re gone now, gone but not forgotten
I can’t say this to your face
But I know you hear

I’ll see you again
You never really left
I feel you walk beside me
I know I’ll see you again

When I’m lost, I’m missing you like crazy
And I tell myself I’m so blessed
To have had you in my life, my life

I’ll see you again
You never really left
I feel you walk beside me
I know I’ll see you again

When I had the time to tell you
I never thought I’d live to see the day
When the words I should have said
Would come to haunt me
In my darkest hour I tell myself

I’ll see you again
I’ll see you again
You never really left
I feel you walk beside me
I know I’ll see you again

I’ll see you again
You never really left
I feel you walk beside me
I know I’ll see you again

I will see you again
I’ll see you again
I miss you like crazy
You’re gone but not forgotten
I’ll never forget you
Someday I’ll see you again
I feel you walk beside me
Never leave you, yeah
Gone but not forgotten
I feel you by my side
No this is not goodbye
