No more tears

The time has come for the tears to end

for you to be happy and cheerful again.

I am safe in God's home above

cradled in His arms; covered with His love.

 

We run and play by the Bridge all day

waiting for the day when you'll be here to stay.

You've been crying so much I feel bad

I want you to be happy and not so sad.

 

Remember the time when I was so small

I couldn't even pickup the rubber ball.

I fought that ball from morning to night

it made you laugh, I was quite a sight.

 

Remember teaching me sit and stay

we had such fun since I didn't really obey.

but you kept at it with test after test

so when I entered my first show I was the best.

 

Remember the great times we had in the past

like when we walked to the park we had a blast.

We'd run and play all through the park

until the sun went down and it got dark.

 

Remember the times we went for a ride

I was so excited I'd jump right inside.

Away we went to who knows where

but you and I we didn't really care.

 

I'll always love you, you're my best friend

I'll be right with you even to the end.

Always remember the great times we had

and there will be no reason to ever be sad.

 

(John Quealy)
