Never Gone By: April Pegoda You gave no one a last farewell, nor did you say good-bye You were gone before we knew it and only God knows why A million times we will miss you and A million times we will cry If love alone could have saved you, then you would have never died In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still In our hearts you hold a place no one else will ever fill It broke our hearts to lose you but you didn't go alone, For apart of us has gone with you, When God decided to call you home We will meet again someday I thank God for making you apart of our lives While you were here on Earth.
