Robert Coltman

Fill not your hearts with pain and sorrow, But remember me in every tomorrow. Remember the joy, the laughter, the smiles, I've only gone to rest a little while. Although my leaving causes pain and grief, My going has eased my hurt And given me relief. So dry your eyes and remember me, Not as I am now, but as I used to be. Because I will remember you all And look on with a smile. Understand, in your hearts, I've only gone to rest a little while. As long as I have the love of each of you, I can live my life in the hearts of all of you.
Fill not your hearts with pain and sorrow,

But remember me in every tomorrow.

Remember the joy, the laughter,

the smiles,

I've only gone to rest a little while.

Although my leaving causes pain

and grief,

My going has eased my hurt

And given me relief.

So dry your eyes and remember me,

Not as I am now, but as I used to be.

Because I will remember you all

And look on with a smile.

Understand, in your hearts,

I've only gone to rest a little while.

As long as I have the love of each of you,

I can live my life in the hearts

of all of you.
