Your Spirit Lingers On

Your spirit lingers on - By Cecilia (age 17)

In my mind, in our memories,

Your laughter used to bloom like the flowers in the spring,

But now that chapter of my life is closed

My friend is gone, I see a withered torn up rose

My tears, they fall like heavy rain,

In the shadow of this lonely night,

I sit up thinking of you, gazing at the sky

And I know your spirit lingers on,

In the whispers of the wind,

In the stories we have woven,

In the love that will not end

Your spirit lingers on

All the photographs I'll treasure, and the echoes of your laughter,

And sleepovers where we would talk about our future life

All our amusing pillow fights and all are wasted sleepless nights

Crazy random moments that just felt right

My tears, they fall like heavy rain,

In the shadow of this lonely night,

I sit up thinking of you, gazing at the sky

And I know your spirit lingers on,

In the whispers of the wind,

In the stories we have woven,

In the love that will not end

Your spirit lingers on

The world feels like a cold sore symphony,

Beautiful song but missing its refrain,

So I'll make our memories the melody,

In the heartache of this pain,

In the warmth of a gentle breeze, In the sunlight's golden rays,

I know you're watching over me, showing me the way.

Cuz your spirit lingers on,

In the whispers of the wind,

And In the stories we have woven,

In the love that will not end

Your spirit lingers on

Your spirit lingers on

Your spirit lingers on

And though you're gone, you're not forgotten, In my heart, you'll always be,

My best friend, you'll live forever, In the love and in my memories

Your spirit lingers on

Your spirit lingers on
