A friend of mine died recently and I had to attend her funeral today.  It was sad but some of the things Mary’s family said about her made me smile and laugh.  She was a great lady and she will be missed.

On my way home this song came to mind which is weird since it’s from an album that came out in 1991! lol  Anyway, it’s an old song but one I really like – Calling You by Richard Marx.

I had a dream that you stood right in front of me
And called to me in black and white
Though I could see you, I couldn’t reach you
You faded into the light

And when the sun turns a dream to reality
I’m left with such an empty space
I feel your spirit, know that I’m near it
I swear I can see your face

Hear me calling you
Calling you
But you just don’t seem to answer anymore

Am I supposed to pretend I don’t feel the pain
Like it happened only yesterday
No use in trying, to stop the crying
I can’t make it go away

Hear me calling you
Calling you
But you just don’t seem to answer anymore

I’m calling you
Calling you
And I’m afraid you won’t answer anymore

Where is the healing you promised me
Maybe this feeling will burn in me forever

Hear me calling you
Calling you
But you just don’t seem to answer anymore

I’m calling you
Calling you
And I’m afraid that you won’t answer anymore

Calling you 
And I’m afraid that you won’t answer anymore
