~ To Those I Love And Those Who Love Me ~

When I am gone, release me, let me go I have so many things to see and do You must not tie yourself to me with tears Be happy that we had so many years I gave you my love, you can only guess How much you gave me in happiness I thank you for the love each have shown But now it’s time I travel alone.

So grieve a while, if grieve you must Then let your grief be comforted by trust It’s only for a while that we must part So bless the memories with your heart It won’t be far away, for life goes on So if you need me, call and I will come. Though you can’t see or touch me, I’ll be near And if you listen with your heart, you’ll be able to hear All my love around you soft and clear And then you must come this way alone. I’ll greet you with a smile and a “WELCOME HOME”.
