In Memory of Aaliyah Dana Haughton

January 16th, 1979-August 25, 2001
When tomorrow starts without me
And I'm not there to see
If the sun rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today
While thinking of the many things
We didn't get to say
I know how much you love me
As much as I love you
And each time that you think of me
I know you'll miss me too
But when tomorrow starts without me
Please try to understand
That an angel came and called my name
And took me by the hand
And said my place was ready in heaven far above
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love
But when I walk through heaven's gates
I felt so much at home when
God looked down and smiled at me
From his great golden throne
He said "This is eternity
And all I've promised you"
Today for life on earth is past
But here it starts a new
I promise no tomorrow
For today will always last
And since each day's the same way
There's no longing for the past
So when tomorrow starts without me
Don't think we're far apart
For every time you think of me
I'm right here in your heart
