I shall remember you
By James J. Metcalfe
Queens, Australia

I shall remember you for as long
As there are fields of snow
And there are flowers in the ground
With strength to grow
As long as there are stars above
And moonbeams on the sea
And just as long as there are songs
Of love and memory
I shall remember you today
And dream of you tonight
And look for you tomorrow when
The sun begins to light
Whatever season, month or year
This much will be the same
The only sound of joy will be
The mention of your name
I shall remember you for as long
As there are earth and sky
And all eternity
May take to say goodbye
