They say there is a reason
They say time will heal
Neither time or reason
Will change the way I feel
Gone are the days we used to share
But in my heart you are always there
The gates of memories will never close
I miss you more than anybody knows
Love and miss you everyday
Till we meet again
We love you always and forever
Forever in our hearts
Love Laura and Emily
