When I come to the end of the road ': And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room. Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little--but not too long And not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me--but let me go. For this is a journey that we all must take
And each must go alone. It's all a part of the Master's plan,
A step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to the friends we know And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds.
Miss Me--But Let me Go!
