Letter To My Love

*If I'm gone when you wake up please don't cry

And if I'm gone when you wake up it's not goodbye

Don't look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress

Remember me, remember me, 'cause I'll be with you in your dreams*

Dearest Alexander, I will be gone soon, my love. I fear leaving you behind. I fear the influence that your father already has over you. There are a few things that I want you to remember always, my darling.

*Oh I'll be with you

If I'm gone when you wake up please don't cry

And if I'm gone when you wake don't ask why

Don't look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress

Remember me, remember me, 'cause I'll be with you in your dreams*

I love you. You will always be my baby boy. You'll always be a part of me. I've loved you since the first time I held you in my arms. When I look at you I see pure love.

*Don't cry I'm with you don't cry I'm by your side

Don't cry I'm with you don't cry I'm by your side

And though my flesh is gone I'll still be with you at all times

And though my body is gone

Hoo, ohh

I'll be there to comfort you at all times

Hoo, ohh, hoo, ohh*

You will be a great man, Alexander. Greater than your father could ever hope to be. I see so much of myself in you. Don't let your father rip that away from you. Search out the good in yourself and hold onto it. Only you have the power to choose your destiny. No matter how hard your father will try he can't decide it for you.

*'Cause if I'm gone when you wake up please don't cry

And if I'm gone when you wake up it's not goodbye

Don't look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress

Remember me, remember me, 'cause I'll be with you

Hooo. Ohh 'Cause I'll be with you*

Don't mourn for me, my darling. Console yourself knowing that I am in a better place. I am no longer on this Earth doing your father's bidding. I am no longer under his power. What breaks my heart is that I must leave you behind. I must leave you to battle your father without my guidance and love.

*I don't want you to cry and weep, Hoo Ohh

I want you to go on livin' your life

I'm not sleepin' an endless sleep, Hoo Ohh

'Cause in your heart you all have good times*

Don't let Lionel bring you down, my love. Stay strong and overcome his hold on you. I pray that Pamela will be able to protect you the way that I wish I could. Keep her close, darling, and your father closer.

*'Cause if I'm gone when you wake up please don't cry

And if I'm gone when you wake up it's not goodbye

Don't look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress

Remember me, remember me, 'cause I'll be with you in your dreams *

I'll always be with you. In your heart. If you need me look inside yourself, and I'll be there. You'll never be alone. I love you, baby. I can never tell you that enough. You are my everything, my all. I'll be in your heart. Goodbye, my love.

*Hoo 'Cause I'll be with you in your dreams*
