When tomorrow starts without me,

And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes

All filled with tears for me,
I know how much you love me,

As much I love you,
And each time that you think of me

I know you'll miss me too

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.
