If Tears Could Build a Stairway Author: Unknown If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to Heaven and bring you back again. No farewell words were spoken, no time to say, "Goodbye." You were gone before I knew it, and only God knows why. My heart still aches with sadness and secret tears still flow. What it meant to love you- no one will ever know. But now I know you want me to weep for you no more; To remember all the happy times, life still has more in store. Since you'll never be forgotten, I pledge to you today- A hollowed place within my heart is where you'll always stay.
