Please sign the online memorial at www.edwardsmemorial.com Close your eyes and come with me, Back to the days that used to be. Back to the time when ours was a young love, When we walked under the trees, With the stars up above, We’d stop and kiss with a warm embrace, And thought we were the only lovers, on the worlds face. Many years have come and gone since then, But darling I’m sure you remember when, Our love was new and oh so warm. So come now, hold me in your arms, And close your eyes and come with me, Back to the days that used to be.
