When Tomorrow Starts Without Me

When tomorrow starts without me, and I am not there to see...

The sun should rise and find your eyes, all filled with tears for me...

I wish that you won't cry, like the way you did...

Ayesha
For Lindsay

If tears could heal a broken heart,
I’d weep all night for you.
If dreams could bring you back again,
I’d sleep my whole life through.
If memories could restore our bond,
