KEEPING YOU CLOSE

Janet Rattay and Tony Pahl: September 2006
Anthony Pahl and Janet Rattay: Pittsburgh - September 19, 2006Heal my spirit
With words of song
Happy moments
For which I long
Memories now
Do take the place
Of where we walked
I see your face
And time just flew
As friendship grew
Stronger, better
As if it knew
And then goodbyes
Spoiled the day
I knew it would
Turn out that way
I will be strong
And wish you well
And bid adieu
So much to tell
I’ll hold your hand
As time draws near
And smile and blink
Away my tears
Separate ways
Good friends we part
Keeping you close
Within my heart.
