When I am gone, release me, let me
go.
I have so many things to see and do,
You mustn't tie yourself to me with too many tears,
But be thankful we had so many good
years.
I gave you my love, and you can only
guess
How much you've given me in happiness.
I thank you for the love that you
have shown,
But now it is time I traveled on alone.
So grieve for me a while, if grieve
you must
Then let your grief be comforted by trust
That it is only for a while that we must part,
So treasure the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away for life goes
on.
And if you need me, call and I will
come.
Though you can't see or touch me, I
will be near
And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear
All my love around you soft and clear
And then, when you come this way
alone,
I'll greet you with a smile and a "Welcome Home".
