To Those I Love and Those Who Love Me
When I am gone, release me. Let me go
1 have so many things to see and do.
You mustnt tie yourself to me with tears,
Be happy we had so many years.
I gave you my love and you can only guess
How much you gave to me in happiness.
I thank you for the love you each have shown
But now its time I traveled 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 those memories in your heart.
I wont be far away for life goes on
So if you need me, call and 1 will come.
Though you cant see or touch me, Ill be near
With all my love around you soft and clear.
And then when you must come this way alone,
Ill greet you with a smile and Welcome You Home.
