Heart-Felt Memories and Whatever The Future May Bring

Today while you're away

You can think about me

And the heart-felt memories

Because if you're feeling alone

I just want you to know

That until you get home

I will be right here patiently waiting for you



While the snow blows cold

Covering up my footsteps

I move right on through

The near future awaits us

To see how we'll be

Surrounded by memories

I know that I will be less smothering for you



So take up the anchor

It's time to set sail

With the past far behind us

And who knows what lies ahead of us

If a storm should rip the sail

And the ship starts on fire again

I know that together we can fight the rain till the end



Hello, my good friend

I know this is a hard time

But stay strong as you can

Give it time and a little patience

I have complete faith that you can do this

Just think back to what you learned

I know it's not the same but try not to get down on you



Hey there, my love

Everyone has some hard times

We have our fair share

But at least we can make it through them

It means that we're strong

And nothing can get in our way

In a few months we can have a healthier relationship again



So this is the end

Of this song about life

And how it's best to take each day

For everything it's worth

And not have to worry

About whatever the future may bring

I write this for you for the beauty and worth I see in you



I am only a memory away

Author's Notes/Comments: 

For Shannon.  I wrote this one to tell you how I feel, how I am changing, how everything will turn out right in the end.  I wrote it for comfort, and warmth, and friendship, and love.  As the song in Juno goes: "You're a part-time lover and a full-time friend... I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else, but you".
