"Remember Me"
Don't remember me with sadness,
Don't remember me with tears,
Remember all the laughter
We've shared throughout the
years.
Now I am contented
That my life was worthwhile
Knowing that I passed along the
way
I made somebody smile.
When you are walking down the
street
And you've got me on your mind
I'm walking in your footsteps
Only a half step behind.
So please don't be so unhappy
Just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you
Each morning, noon and night.
