All the memories of times spent with you are filled with fun and laughter, but for awhile they cause tears of sorrow that you are gone.
Those tears flow now thinking about you and Tom with your secret handshake, SO SO funny. Love you my friend.

You'll be im my heart always Danny

There is an emptiness in my life. There is a void in my heart. There is no one next to me.Its so quiet here; No more of your beautiful smiles, No more looking into your eyes and telling you how much I LOVE YOU, your laugh, your touch, your smell you holding me in your arms; asking me if I was Happy...Only memories. No second chances to tell you how much I miss You. My Danny I will Always Love You...

Well I fell down, down, down
Into this dark and lonely hole
There was no one there to care about me anymore
And I needed a way to climb and grab a hold of the edge
You were sitting there holding a rope.

And we'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear
It won't be long now, it won't be long now.

When I get back on land
Well I'll never get my chance
Be ready to live and it'll be ripped right out of my hands
Maybe someday we'll take a little ride
We'll go up, up, up and everything will be just fine.

And we'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear.
It won't be long now, it won't be long now

If only I had a little bit more time
If only I had a little bit more time with you.

We could go up, up, up
And take that little ride
And sit there holding hands
And everything would be just right
And maybe someday I'll see you again
We'll float up in the clouds and we'll never see the end.

And we'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear
It won't be long now, it won't be long now.
