Don't count me out of life yet.
There's so much I must do.
I have to tell our babies how
I fell in love with you!
I have to let them know just how
you turned my world around.
They need to know the Heaven
you made sure that we had found.
Don't count me out of life yet.
There's so much I must see.
I want to visit the ocean floor
and I want you there with me!
So many lovely places
that we have never been.
One day we have to travel...
to gaze in wonder at Big Ben.
Don't count me out of life yet.
There's so much I must feel.
Our grandchilds tiny fingertips
as they grasp for what is real.
I'll be that sweet ol' Gramma
that I dreampt of all my life.
I'll feel sweet separation
as our youngest takes a wife.
Don't count me out of life yet.
There's so much I must say.
I love you just is not enough
to express my thoughts today.
