They say memories are golden Well, maybe that is true I never wanted memories I only wanted you A million times I cried If love alone could have saved you you never would have died In life I loved you dearly in death I love you still In my heart you hold a place no one else could fill If tears could build a stairway and heartache make a lane I'd walk the path to Heaven and bring you back again Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same But as God calls us back one by one the chain will link again - - - - - - - - - When tomorrow starts without me Don't think we're far apart For every time you think of me I'm right here inside your heart - - - - - - - - - The Rainbow Bridge There is a bridge connecting Heaven and Earth. It is called the rainbow bridge because of its many colors. Just this side of the Rainbow Bridge there is a land of meadows, hills, and valleys with lush green grass. When a beloved pet dies, the pet goes to this place. There is always food and water and warm spring weather. The old and frail animals are young again. They play all day with each other. There is only one thing missing. They are not with their special person who loves them on Earth. So, each day they run and play until the day comes when one suddenly stops playing and looks up! The nose twitches! The ears are up! The eyes are staring! And this one suddenly runs from the group! You have been seen, and when you and your special friend meet, you take him or her in your arms and embrace. Your face is kissed again and again and again, and you look once more into the eyes of your trusting pet. Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together never to be separated.
