O I’ll never forget you,
For I know that you have wings now,
And they’ll always protect you,
Though I know that I cannot say just how.

And suddenly I’m crying,
And suddenly your hand is what I hold,
And suddenly I’m crossing my pinkies in that promise I made,
When I was ten years old

‘Cuz suddenly your flying,
And suddenly their world changes ‘round,
And suddenly a family has to grieve,
That little girl’s
A big sister now.

But I’ll never forget you,
And I know that you have wings now,
For they’ll always protect you,
O they’ll always protect you.
And I’ll cry my tears now,
Because I know there’s a billion who are not,
And I’ll try and remember without my pictures,
Even when I know that I cannot.

For I’ll never forget you,
‘Cuz I know that you have wings now,
O I’ll never forget you,
O I’ll never forget you.

And I will read your story,
And I’ll try and make the tears,
Spill over my lashes,
But it just won’t happen,
‘Cus I know I feel you near.

But I’ll never forget you,
And I know that you have wings now,
And I always will love you,
O I always will love you.
