Song - One Sweet Day

This song by Mariah Carey and Boys to Men was one that was used at a Remembrance Service that I organized as a Senior Resident Physician-in-Training. The song was suggested by one of the Clerks from the Oncology Ward at Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara, who had seen her share of losses with patients and their family members. 
This is one of those songs that conveys the "if only's" all the things that you never get a chance to say. The message for me in the song is to remember to tell people how you feel about them, because life is too short and unpredictable to wait for "One Sweet Day" to tell them.....
 
 
 
 
One Sweet Day
by Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
Now it's too late to hold you
'Cause you've flown away
So far away. 

Never had I imagined
Living without your smile. 
Feeling and knowing you hear me, 
It keeps me alive, 
Alive 

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven 
Like so many friends we've lost along the way 
And I know eventually we'll be together 
One sweet day. 

Darling, I never showed you
Assumed you'd always be there 
Took your presence for granted
But I always cared 
And I miss the love we shared.

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven 
Like so many friends we've lost along the way 
And I know eventually we'll be together 
One sweet day. 

Although the sun will shine the same
I'll always look to a brighter day 
Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep 
You will always listen when I pray 

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven 
Like so many friends we've lost along the way 
And I know eventually we'll be together 
One sweet day 

Sorry I never told you 
All I wanted to say....
