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 to me in happiness. I thank you for the love you have shown, But now its time I traveled on alone. So grieve a while for me if grieve you must, Then let your grief be comforted by trust. Its only for a while that we must part, So bless the memories within your heart. I wont be far away, for life goes on, So if you need me, call and I will come. Though you cant see or touch me, Ill be near, And if you listen with you heart, youll hear, All of my love around you soft and clear. And then, when you must come this way alone, Ill greet you with a smile, and say welcome home. Love You All
