Jackie's Red Umbrella - Gone, but Not Forgotten Lyrics

Gone, but not Forgotten
It's been so many years since you went away
But I still see your smile, as if it were yesterday
And I still choke back tears when I say your name
But I'll keep you in my heart and that's where you will stay

I know you're gone, but not forgotten
I can hear your laughter in the wind
I know you're gone, but not forgotten
You'll always be my dearest friend, my dearest friend

Remember the day when I wrote my first song?
You told me it was beautiful and sang along!
Do you do that now, from where you are?
Are you out there listening from the stars?

I know you're gone, but not forgotten
I can hear your laughter in the wind
I know you're gone, but not forgotten
You'll always be my dearest friend, my dearest friend

The ache inside, I can't describe, it's tearing me apart
You're one day here the next day gone, I wish it was a lie...
Because you're gone, but not forgotten
I can hear your laughter in the wind
I know you're gone, but not forgotten
You'll always be my brother to the end
It's been so many years since you went away
There's still so many things I wish I could say
Like how I think about you every single day
But I'll keep you in my heart and that's where you will stay
Because you're gone, but not forgotten
