To Those I Love and To Those Who Love Me

When I am gone release me, let me go
I have so many things to see and do
You musn't tie yourself to me with tears
Be thankful for our beautiful years
I gave to you my love
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 on alone
So grieve awhile for me, if grieve you must
Then let your grief be comforted by trust
It's only for a time that we must part
So bless the memories within your heart
I won't be far away, for life goes on
So if you need me, call me and I will come
Though you can't see or touch me, I'll be near
All my love around you, soft and clear
And then, when you must come this way alone
I'll greet you with a smile and say,

"WELCOME HOME".
