Death Quote by Anonymous
“If my tears could build a stairway, so you could walk back down to me, I'd cry the tallest staircase, so you could be with your family. If my tears could make an ocean, that would bring you back to me, I'd cry the longest ocean, so you'd come sailing home, free as could be. But my tears can't make an ocean, they can't bring you back to me, so from my heart I tell you, there you'll always be.”
