To those I loved and those who loved me: When I am gone, release me, let me go I have so many things to see and do But now its time I travelled on alone. So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must Then let your grief be comforted by trust I wont be far away, for life must go on. So if you need me, call, and I will come Though you cant see me, or hear me, Ill be there. And if you listen with your heart Youll hear all 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."
